I can't find SweptSolidBuilder in the latest beta, only PipeReplacer is present but it is more limited (at least as far as I tested it. Will SweptSolidBuilder make a come back this year?

Hello @antoine​ , unfortunately, the SweptSolidBuilder is no longer available. The PipeReplacer has a subset of the functionality of the SweptSolidBuilder, but doesn't support custom profiles. What functionality are you looking for that doesn’t seem to be in the PipeReplacer? 


Hello @kailinatsafe​ ,

I am just pleased that Safe was improving its 3d support. PipeReplacer is nice, just less flexible. I wondered if the restriction to pipes were temporary or not. This kind of functionality is often used in CAD/3D projects with tools like Autocad, Rhino or Blender. I am pretty sure that it would have helped a lot of engineering companies to use FME more often to automate their processes.


@kailinatsafe (Safer) Hope to add custom configuration, much needed function
