Hi Patrick.
It's been a while since I worked with mapping files, nowadays FME Workbench is
"King". However, I think this is kind of you want to do:
# Define your existing Mapinfo-attributes
MAPINFO_DEF $(_BASENAME) \
igds_level Decimal(6,0) \
igds_class Decimal(6,0) \
igds_color Decimal(6,0) \
igds_graphic_group Decimal(5,0) \
igds_style Decimal(6,0) \
igds_text_string Char(254) \
igds_rotation Decimal(14,6) \
igds_font Decimal(6,0) \
igds_text_size Decimal(14,6) \
igds_justification Decimal(6,0) \
igds_weight Decimal(6,0)
# Map your Mapinfo-attributes to the Mapinfo-definition
MAPINFO $(_BASENAME) \
igds_level %igds_level \
igds_class %igds_class \
igds_color %igds_color \
igds_graphic_group %igds_graphic_group \
igds_style %igds_style \
igds_text_string %igds_text_string \
igds_rotation %igds_rotation \
igds_font %igds_font \
igds_text_size %igds_text_size \
igds_justification %igds_justification \
igds_weight %igds_weight
# Map your Mapinfo-attributes to the output data
IGDS $(_BASENAME) \
igds_level %igds_level \
igds_class %igds_class \
igds_color %igds_color \
igds_graphic_group %igds_graphic_group \
igds_style %igds_style \
igds_text_string %igds_text_string \
igds_rotation %igds_rotation \
igds_font %igds_font \
igds_text_size %igds_text_size \
igds_justification %igds_justification \
igds_weight %igds_weight
# Define your output layer (no need to define the attributes since IGDS have no
user defined attributes.)
IGDS_DEF $(_BASENAME)
This does only work if your input data (Mapinfo-data) has the attributes above,
otherwise you'll have to rename the attributes.
Have you seen this documentation?
http://reference.mapinfo.com/software/mapinfo_pro/english/8.5/UT_UG.pdf
Try generating a mapping file from your data, that should get you on the right
track.
Good luck!

Ämne: [fme] Extracting igds_text_string and igds_rotation to MapInfo from DGN
Hi there,
I'm trying to extract igds_text_string, igds_rotation and a few other
bits by using a command line batch using Universal Translator in MI
Pro:
MAPINFO_DEF $(_BASENAME) \
igds_level Decimal(6,0) \
igds_class Decimal(6,0) \
igds_color Decimal(6,0) \
igds_graphic_group Decimal(5,0) \
igds_style Decimal(6,0) \
igds_text_string Char(254) \
igds_rotation Decimal(14,6) \
igds_font Decimal(6,0) \
igds_text_size Decimal(14,6) \
igds_justification Decimal(6,0) \
igds_weight Decimal(6,0)
But I do not get anything in the igds_text_string field after
translation.
Any basic stuff I'm missing hhere?
