    We are having a problem with text not showing in earthworks excavators.

    I make the designes in TBC and upload it to Worksmanager via TBC.

    Lines are showing fine (text and lines are on the same layer)

    I'm using a text setup linke this.

    If I upload thru the old way with jobsitedesignadmin text shows up fine.

    I too am having this issue.

    I've got dimensions with text to assist the excavator whith picking the right 3d line to excavate too.I'm using the worksmanger design workflow in TBC. 

    First I tried picking the dimensions as the design map. Got nothing.

    Second I exploded and elevated the dimension which gave me the segments of the dimensions and text(single line). Got the segments only, no text.

    Apon importing into TBC I find the text is in the vcl file. Its just not apearing on earthworks digger. I'm using TBC standard text style.

    Earthworks does not like Mtext. If you explode this to text you may have better luck.
