MeasureSetter
Sets measure(s) on a point, line, arc, area geometry or a vertex of a linear geometry to attribute value(s) of given attribute(s) or list attribute.
Output Ports
Features that have had measure(s) set on their geometry.
If the input feature's geometry type does not match the value chosen in the Type parameter, the feature will be rejected.
Parameters
The Type parameter selection will determine which of the other parameters is enabled for this transformer.
All Vertices to Same Value: Sets the measure of all vertices of the geometry to the value or value of the attribute specified in Measure Value of Point or Vertex.
Individual Vertex by Index: Sets the measure of a point, curve, or area at the vertex specified by the Index to the value or attribute value specified in Measure Value of Point or Vertex. A negative index can be used to indicate the position of the vertex in which the measure is to be set relative to the end of the geometry (-1 is the last coordinate, -2 the second last, and so on). If the geometry of a feature is a point, then only index 0 or index -1 can be used to retrieve the measure value. Any geometry other than a point, curve or area is rejected.
Point: Sets the measure of the point to the value or value of the attribute specified in Measure Value of Point or Vertex.
Whole Line or Whole Area: Sets the measure of a line or area to the values of the list attribute specified in Source Measure List Attribute of Line or Area. The number of elements in the list attribute must match the number of points of the line or area. A Path geometry or path boundary of an area is ignored. A PathSplitter transformer can be used to split a path to its respective segments in order to set the measure(s) on each segment separately. A PathBuilder can also be used to join the segments back into a path.
End Points of Arc: Sets the measure of the start and end points of an arc to the values or values of the attributes specified in Start Point Measure Value of Arc and End Point Measure Value of Arc respectively.
This parameter is used when the Type is All Vertices to Same Value, Individual Vertex by Index or Point.
This parameter is used when the Type is Individual Vertex by Index.
This parameter is used when the Type is Whole Line or Whole Area.
This parameter is used when the Type is All Vertices to Same Value.
This parameter is used when the Type is End Points of Arc.
If not specified, the default measures will be set.
Editing Transformer Parameters
Using a set of menu options, transformer parameters can be assigned by referencing other elements in the workspace. More advanced functions, such as an advanced editor and an arithmetic editor, are also available in some transformers. To access a menu of these options, click beside the applicable parameter. For more information, see Transformer Parameter Menu Options.
