Hi all

 

I have a CAD file containing multiple points and polylines. I am trying to add a vertex to the polylines where each point intesects the polyline.Each polyline has multiple vertices. Seems to be a simple enough problem but i can't seem to solve it. VertexCreator only seems to add to the endponit of a line.I have tried

 

1) Chopper (max vertices 1) with a count

 

2) NeighbourFinder to assign count

 

3) Sorter

 

4) PointConnector

 

this doesn't quite work....is there an easy way of solving this??

the NeighborFinder with Insert Vertex on Base Feature set to yes would work fpr a single point per line for multiple points I would try:

 

 

Counter to assign a uniqueID to the lines (if needed)

 

PointOnLineOverlayer with a tolerance of 0  (Each input line is split at its closest place to any point within the specified point tolerance)

 

LineJoiner grouped by the unique ID
