This is how my machine is, you can see the direction of text on a work piece. When I designed that workpiece on my computer the text would be showing left to right.

So is your's like that ? if so then it's normal.
Wait till your asked to design text on one piece at all different angles & upside down and raised & sunken then you might get fussy.Quote:

If you were doing lots of it the same way then you might want to change but if you are working on different layouts I would say leave as is, quick rotate is select all press Ctrl +9 45 left, Ctrl +0 45 right
Then just change your ports and pins settings (and slave settings), so that you have two motors on your Y axis, and one on the X.Quote:

BUt my preference would always be to configure the machine to match V-Carve Pro. Having to rotate anything should be a rare case, rather than the norm.
Maybe part of the answer lies here; http://www.mycncuk.com/threads/8004-...ight=backwards
D-man, how did this conclude ?
The Vectors are the workpiece!!Quote:
