Hi I have table of with x,y, coordinate_number, and ID associated with each record. I created the vertex, sorted by coordinate_number and trying to use linebuilder by grouping by ID. However the option to group by ID is missing in version 6 of the transformer (2018)

Any suggestion how lines could be built efficiently by grouping by field ID? I cannot upgrade FME Desktop for now. I am expecting about 1.5 million lines to be created.

In version 6 of the LineBuilder it's the Connection Break Attributes parameter: any time the value for that attribute(s) change it will start a new line. Obviously this means you have to make sure the points enter in the right order, but you have that taken care of.
