Hi Marc, Not quite sure what you are looking for here. To have the user enter fixed values at run-time, open up the transformer list in the navigation pane (WORKSPACE tab), locate the Tiler, expand the list of parameters, right-click on Tile Width and choose Publish Parameter. Now whenever you use File > Prompt + Run the user will be prompted to enter a value for that setting.
However, to get the values from an attribute I think you will have to upgrade to FME2007. That version has the ability to choose an attribute from a drop-down list. In your version of FME, not only can you not pick an attribute, but I don't think you can insert a function call into the field; for example &attributeName or @Value(attributeName) Hope this helps to answer your question, Regards, Mark Mark Ireland, Senior Product Specialist Safe Software Inc.
