HELP!!!!

Currently running version 2024 and trying to build a new Feature Definition Library with AutoCAD Blocks with multiple insertion points. i.e an AutoCAD arrow where I record the point as point one and the base as Point 2.

Now getting one of two error messages when I try to open the FXL file directly in Feature Definition Manager

Error while opening file F:\04052025d.fxl.
Error message: The element 'PointLabel' in namespace 'http://trimble.com/schema/pointlabel' has invalid child element 'UseNumberGroupSeparator' in namespace 'http://trimble.com/schema/pointlabel'. List of possible elements expected: 'Prefix' in namespace 'http://trimble.com/schema/pointlabel'.

Error while opening file F:\02052025 .fxl.
Error message: The 'IsLabelVisible' attribute is not declared.

When I open TBC, open a New project and process the data using the FXL file, it  works fine.

However, when I export as a DWG file, selecting CAD, DWG Exporter, Options, Select by Layer and select all layers, I have no point name description or elevation data.

Any help will be much appreciated.

I opened a new Project in TBC.

Imported my (working) FXL file.
Imported a DWG file of an Arrow.
Gone to Draughting, Create Block, Named the Image and then selected First and Second Insertion Points

Clicked Create
Then selected the new Block to use.
Saved the VCE file.
Then Selected Home, Export
Then click on Export.
When I try to open the FXL file directly I receive the following message.

Nick,

Sorry to hear about this issue. Are you able to share the FXL and perhaps a short video of what you are seeing? 

Thanks, 

Jonas
