The Scaler scales using the 0,0 point as reference point, so it will also introduce a shift to your data. I've created the Scalerpack (http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Example_Custom_Transformers#Scaler_Pack) , which consists of 2 custom transformers that let you scale objects in relation to their centerpoint or center of gravity. You can use that to scale the bounding box down and then use it as a clipper feature. -- Hans van der Maarel Red Geographics www.redgeographics.com / [EMAIL PROTECTED] Get the maximum benefit from your FME, FME Objects, or SpatialDirect via our Professional Services team.
