I have been using mach3 for turning for ages now and the program that generates the code has been set to swap g2 for g3 and visa versa . Why do I have to and can I set anything in mach3 to swap the two I/e make G2 DO WHAT ITS SUPOSED TO DO.

It sounds like the post processor was modified, if so you should undo the changes there rather than change anytihng in Mach3.

Thanks for looking . I had to modify the post processor to get the correct rotation. but I would like to have it unmodified because if I do any manual editing I have to remember to put G3 For G2 and G2 forG3 , I will make a mistake one day and may be a big bang.
