Greetings,

I have a Feature Reader transformer, reading a list of dwgs. Sometime after I initially created the Feature Reader I needed to expose additional attributes, and so did by adding to this list...

image...however, the newly exposed attributes are not showing up in my output ports. I'm not seeing the Feature Reader in the 'Update Readers' command, so am not sure exactly how to get the newly exposed attributes exposed. Any pointers would be appreciated.

  • @townest​ This has been a problem in the past. As a workaround you can use the AttributeExposer to make the attributes you need visible in workbench

Ok. I ended up using AttributeManager, because the opposite turned out to be true also (extraneous attributes were exposed), so I was getting both overexposure and underexposure. Thx.
