fmeobjects.FMEGeometryTools.force2D

FMEGeometryTools.force2D(geometry)

This routine forces the geometry to 2D. If the geometry is surface or solid, it will become 2D polygons, or wire-frame if the surface is vertical.

Parameters:

geometry (FMEGeometry) – The geometry to force 2D.

Return type:

FMEGeometry

Returns:

The geometry in 2D. Note: This method returns a terminal geometry type of the FMEGeometry; i.e. one of the leaf classes in the FMEGeometry inheritance graph. For example, a FMELine is returned if the geometry truly is a line.

Raises:

FMEException – An exception is raised if an error occurred.
