I am trying to migrate leaderline annotation from AutoCAD to ESRI. While reading the leader anno from dwg, the reader reads it as 4 individual components and not a single entity. Is it necessary to define all geodb_text_leader* attributes. With the attached Workbench only the text gets migrated and not the leader line. I have attached the sample dwg file, workbench and the GDB for better understanding.

Remove the featuremerge as it wil not combine the 2 types.

If needed you could use a aggregator.

I did try Aggregator transformer, but FME gives an error for not receiving the expected geometry type.

yes, it does not accept heterogeneous aggregates ?

But if you just remove the featuremerger, it will write the objects.

It does write objects, but as separate elements and not as a single entity, which is needed. Moreover, it writes Leader and Arrow in a different manner and does not populate any attributes for both Leader and Arrow. When the elements written in GDB are read in FME with transformer ESRIANNOTATIONRENDERER, they all pass thru the Text port.
