AttributeRemover
Removes the selected attributes and list attributes from the feature.
This is usually not necessary unless the feature will later be processed by a transformer that merges attributes onto it from other features. In such a case, if the other features have attributes with the same names as this feature, the attributes must first be removed for the merge to occur.
Input Ports
The feature type that contains the attributes you want to remove.
Output Ports
All features are output through this port.
Parameters
Click the browse button to display the list dialog. Select the attributes that you want to remove from the feature. The unchecked attributes will be retained.
After you connect this transformer, click the Browse button and select the lists to remove.
Note that if you select to remove a list, your selection will include any list attributes or nested lists. For example, if you select to remove a list called
list{}
then list{}.attr or list{}.sublist{}
will also be removed.
Usage Notes
- Use the BulkAttributeRemover to remove all attributes that match a pattern.
- Use the AttributeKeeper to keep selected individual attributes on a feature.
