XMLReader returning "\n " instead of value

I'm having a strange issue and I can't really find the cause. It just suddenly stopped working and I don't know what triggered it.

I'm using XMLReader in C# to read an xml file. I'm reading the values from the xml file like this:

if(subReader2.MoveToAttribute("X"))
    float.TryParse(reader.Value, NumberStyles.Any
           , CultureInfo.InvariantCulture, out pt.point.X);

The xml contains a tag like this:

<Point X="0" Y="0" Easing="Linear" EaseIn="True" EaseOut="True" />

When it reads the attributes X and Y, reader.Value returns \n for some reason. It has worked before, but something is stopping it now. The attributes, Easing, EaseIn and EaseOut are being read just fine. So I have no idea why X and Y would fail.

The full xml file

The complete parsing function

Any ideas?

When you have read.Value, shouldn't that be subReader2.Value?

The problem here is that you are pointing subReader2 at the X attribute and then taking a value from reader. Is there a reason you're using a separate reader for each loop?
