FME Best Practice for 2014
Fighting the Bad Practice Pirates
Organization is Important!
You wouldn’t not organize
your child’s birthday party!
You wouldn’t not organize your trip to the FME

For more information on how unorganized workspaces
harm the economy, please visit

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. This is like the anti-piracy ad that goes “you wouldn’t steal a car… so why would you steal a movie?”
  2. Unless….. you’re an FME Best Practice Pirate!
  3. Like the warning on movie DVDs. “National FME Best Practices Coordination Center” is obviously iMark’s office in Manitoba!
  4. OK. Now to the main part. The training manual separates best practices into four parts, as shown here. The rest of the presentation goes through these four parts, explains what they are, and what has been done to help in FME 2014
  5. Custom Transformers now allow a version [DEMO WORKSPACE AVAILABLE]Prepare by installing a custom transformer. Then open the fmx file. Make a change. Save it. You are prompted to update the version. Place one in WB to show the version number.Constants: No longer exist. All workspaces opened in 2014 will get them replaced with these [DEMO WORKSPACE AVAILABLE]It allows values to be calculated on the fly – i.e. constants are no longer “constant”!Canvas – Open a workspace and go into zoom mode. Now right-click. WB exits from zoom mode to the selection tool. A nice shortcut to reduce clicking on the toolbar
  6. Annotation: Updated [DEMO WORKSPACE AVAILABLE]Demo by opening a workspace and placing an annotation. Show how these items can be changed.
  7. With the removal of the grid and the auto-layout, don’t forget there are alternative tools that can be used. Not many users seem to be aware of these [DEMO WORKSPACE AVAILABLE]Select multiple objects, right-click, and there are align and spread tools.ps – you might want to apologize for those functions being removed and assure users we are working on replacements
  8. Performance means performance of the translation.FeatureMerger: Suppliers First is the same as the Clipper’s Suppliers First [DEMO WORKSPACE AVAILABLE]GeometryReplacer: Basically a prompt to remind you to remove the geometry attribute if it’s no longer needed [DEMO WORKSPACE AVAILABLE]You really don’t want to carry this attribute around the translation longer than is necessary.
  9. Not much to mention in Workbench. Just note that the Transformer Info window is now a general Help window (including Workbench, R+W manual, etc)There are more items in ServerTopic Monitoring: Monitor a topic to see when it is fired. Makes debugging easier.View Log: You can now view the log for a job still in progress. Helps you confirm a long job (12 hours+ for example) is still running
  10. Just like a movie/DVD piracy ad. Except our FBI is the FME Bureau of Investigation.If you’re thinking of applying for certification, you’d better not be lacking in any of these!
