PathSplitter

Decomposes a path feature into its component segments.

Note that for an input feature to be affected, its geometry itself must be a path; that is, areas whose boundaries are paths and aggregates containing paths will be unaffected.  The GeometryCoercer, DonutHoleExtractor, and Deaggregator may be used to prepare the geometries input to this transformer.

Each output feature will contain a copy of the source feature's attributes. Non-path input features will be output untouched.

Parameters

Segment Number Attribute

If specified, each output feature is given an attribute containing the part's segment index within the original path feature.

List Attribute

The optional List Attribute is used to associate attributes with each segment of the path. If the feature has a list of attributes that are in parallel to the members of the aggregate, these can be decomposed onto the output features by specifying this parameter.

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.
