RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] G-code question

Most G-Code interpreters parse the complete block before attempting to
execute it. In the case of the block you provided below, the line would be
the equivalent of

G1 X3.0 Y4.3 W1 U1

which is NOT what you explained that you wanted to do. However, If you were
to write

G1 X0.0 Y0.0
X2.0 Y2.0
X3.0 Y4.3 W0.0 U0.0
W1.0 U1.0

it should work as you wanted. IOW, put separate motions on separate lines.
Since G1 is modal, it will be used until another Gxx code is executed.
