Whoever uses your transformer will need to create attributes in the output feature to take what your transformer is outputting. Transformers do not write features. | |

| Sep 3, 2014 at 2:57 | comment | added | MickyT | You need to define attributes in the writer's featuretype for the exposed/created attributes to go to otherwise they will not be written to the GML. Looking at your screenshot I would say none of your attributes are going through | |
| Sep 3, 2014 at 2:52 | comment | added | Coxy | Thanks for the screenshot, but I need to do this in a transformer. Is there no way to accomplish this using the AttributeExposer/Creator building blocks? | |

| Sep 3, 2014 at 2:33 | comment | added | Coxy | Thanks for that. So to start with I should have an AttributeExposer to expose the pen color etc., then link that into an AttributeCreator? | |
