Writer Feature Type Properties: Format Parameters

To access format parameters, open the Feature Type Properties dialog by clicking the properties button on a feature type in the workspace. These parameters are applicable only to the selected feature type.

Shapefile Settings

This parameter applies at the feature type level. The initial value for this parameter is obtained at the writer level (see Dimension Settings in the Shapefile writer parameters dialog), but it can also be modified for individual feature types.
