Hi,

In my workflow I need to clip a layer of lines (pipes) with a layer of named points (valves). Each line originally has the names of named node points at each end as attributes, but after clipping the lines (with PointOnLineOverlayer) these relationships are of course nulled.

I can use PointOnPointOverlayer to geographically match my clipped segments' new end points to all the named nodes, but what about the direction (start-to-end) of the clipped line segments ?

Do the clipped line segments always have the same orientation as the original line from which they're derived/cut ?

Cheers

Lars I.

The orientation of lines will not change as the result of clipping
