Complex Shapes/Strings
igds_type: igds_complex_shape
igds_type: igds_complex_string
Complex shape/string elements correspond to IGDS element types 14 and 12. Complex shape/string elements are normally treated the same as shape/linestring elements by the IGDS reader.
Splitting of FME geometries such as IFMEPaths into complex shape and complex string elements will occur automatically on write, such that the size limitations of complex shape and complex string elements are not exceeded. Similarly, each line string element component of complex shape and complex string elements will be created so as not to exceed the maximum number of coordinates for a line string.
