TraitMerger

Moves the traits from one geometry onto another geometry. It can also move the attributes from a feature onto a geometry as traits, or the traits from a geometry onto a feature as attributes. The TraitMerger does not support attribute-attribute merges. For merging attributes between features, use the FeatureMerger.

Features that contain the desired attributes/traits are connected through the Supplier port, and the features that will receive the attributes/traits are connected through the Requestor port.

Requestor features/geometry are joined to Supplier features/geometry when the expressions specified in the Join On parameter ALL have the same value for both the requestor and supplier.

Attribute/Trait Accumulation

If attributes/traits on the supplier and requestor feature share the same name, but are not geometry attributes that start with fme_, then they are deemed conflicted.
