Make a dynamic line segmentation with points

Hi @lalandexavier, a possible approach is to create copies of the line for each pair of Start/End points and snip off the copied line by measures of the Start/End points. The idea is simple but the implementation could be a long story.

This is an example: dynamic-line-segmentation.fmwt (FME 2017.1.2.1)

Gray: Original Line, Blue: Step 1 (moved to +Y direction), Red: Step 2

Dear @takashi, this is a perfect answer, thank you very much !

I saw, since this post, I identify few particular cases, for example same vertex for different points or linear not in the same direction explication-probleme-copie-copie.png.

In this case, I've a proble with the NeighborFinder because point doesn't match. If I use the Unmatchedcandidate, the MeasureExtractor doesn't work. finally if I work without the point unmatched, I don't have all my linears.

What kind of transformer can I use for it ?

Thank you for your help.

This workspace could solve the problems

dynamic-line-segmentation-2.fmwt (FME 2017.1.2.1)

 

Thank you for your help @takashi that seem's to work with my example but if I try in production in see the transformer snipper doesn't work.

 

 

The transformer keep the lines from my transformer Listexploder without another action

 

 

I extract a simple example if you want to see : snipper.zip

 

 

The line features in the dataset don't have measure dimension. That's the reason why the Snipper (Mode: Measure) won't work.

 

Thank you very much @takashi that's work very good, if I add a measuregenerator in output of ListExploder.

 

 

That's perfect, thank you.
