Run dissolver on surface in 3D

I have a collection of surfacess that want to run a Dissolver on.  The problem is that while all the surfaces are planar, they are in 3D-space and aren't necessarily parallel to the XY-plane.  Dissolver seems to only work with 2D surfaces.  

 

Any ideas?   

 

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

 

Yes, Disolver is for 2D ("This transformer accepts two-dimensional polygonal features")

 

 

Just an alternative, Have you tried "Aggregator"?

For anyone looking to dissolve surfaces, our latest FME 2018.0 betas have a new transformer: the SurfaceDissolver.
