Pause and resume will do what it says. Resume motion from wherever you've jogged to, even if that means ploughing straight through the work piece to get to the next coordinate, whereas Run From Here should do an initial move then plunge to the resume point, which you should be asked the details of to confirm the initial move is suitable.
thats correct. it was because i didnt use the run from here option in mach3.
