Deaggregator

Decomposes an aggregate feature into its components.

Each output feature may keep a complete, unaltered copy of the source feature's attributes.

Attribute Accumulation

In some cases, a feature's non-list attributes may share the same name as attributes that are generated by the Deaggregator. For example, consider a feature with a non-list attribute length and a list attribute somelist{0}.length, somelist{0}.kind, somelist{1}.length, somelist{1}.kind,... If somelist is exploded, the feature may contain two length attributes - one from the original, non-list attribute, and one from the somelist list attribute. If the generated attributes share the same name as a feature's original, non-list attributes, but are not geometry attributes that start with fme_, they are deemed conflicted.

Use the following parameters to specify which attributes to keep on the output features, and which attribute's values to maintain in case of conflicts.

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.
