Anne, Could you provide more details? What type of geometry are you expecting on exit? It is worth nothing that different formats use different words to indicate the same geometry. A polyline in a SHAPE file may be represented by a line in your outgoing format.
If you load up the output geometry and the input geometry in a viewer, can you tell that they are different? --Adam Anne CRENN wrote: > Thanks for that answer. > In fact, when FME Viewer says that it is "shape_arc", it is the same that > "shape_polyline", isn't it ? > However, I have a recent version of FME ... > > My problem is that I convert my shape_polyline into STAR format > in exit, shape_polyline has become line. > FME changes the geometry of my shape ... > Is there some options to avoid having this problem ?? > > Thanks > > Anne > > > -----Message d'origine----- > De : [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] la part de > Graeme Leeming > Envoyé : mardi 7 février 2006 23:34 > À : [email protected] > Objet : Re: [FME] Pb of shape_polyligne > > > Anne, > > Shapefile polylines are already a line layer.
