PointCloudComponentRenamer

Renames an existing component.

Jump to Configuration

Typical Uses

  • Renaming components to meet processing or format requirements.

How does it work?

The PointCloudComponentRenamer receives point cloud features, changes the names of selected existing components, and then outputs the modified point cloud feature.

Components may be renamed to standard component names or user-defined names. If a target component name (the new name) is already in use, that component will be overwritten.

Multiple components may be renamed at once.

Usage Notes

Choosing a Point Cloud Transformer

FME has a selection of transformers for working specifically with point cloud data.

For information on point cloud geometry and properties, see Point Clouds (IFMEPointCloud).

Parameters

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.

Defining Values

There are several ways to define a value for use in a Transformer. The simplest is to simply type in a value or string, which can include functions of various types such as attribute references, math and string functions, and workspace parameters. There are a number of tools and shortcuts that can assist in constructing values, generally available from the drop-down context menu adjacent to the value field.

Dialog Options - Tables

Transformers with table-style parameters have additional tools for populating and manipulating values.
