I'm new to FME and want to create a workbench that translates 3D data to zero.
I have IN (reader) -> CenterPointExtractor -> Affiner -> OUT (writer).
Within Affiner have:
1, 0, @mult(@Value(_inside_x),(-1))
0, 1, @mult(@Value(_inside_y),(-1))
I've tried a bunch of variants of this but am struggling to get the data to move to zero. Workbench attached.
Thanks for the assistance.
Hi @jp12212,
The Offsetter might be simpler than the Affiner, since you can just us the negatives of the center values as your offsets.
Hi @daveatsafe ,
I have modified as per below but it seems to not be working still. Any suggestions.
Cheers
You'll still need to offset relative to the geometry reference point (in this case it's the center point), otherwise you'll just move the geometry 1 ground unit south-west relative to the original position.
Try this:

Hi David,
Thanks for getting back to me - this seem to be working but not all the elements are moving (only the lines, not the solid box). Is this behaving as it should? I will go and test a couple of other files in case. If you see anything incorrect here though please let me know.

Remove the connection between the source feature type and the Offsetter - it is bypassing the CenterPointExtractor, creating a second set of features at the original location.
Great, thank you!
