Hi @mehar, for example, you can use the AttributeCreator to swap two columns like this.

The problem is how you can determine rows in which the two columns should be swapped. How can you determine if the values of x, y are reversed?

@mehar There is also CoordinateSwapper. But as @takashi points out, the real problem is determining which coordinates to swap. Once you've determine that perhaps TestFilter and CoordinateSwapper will do what you want.
