If you are in the front view, they will read correctly for X and Z



Looking at the contour on page 217 of the manual, how do I tell what is the
front view??

I have a simple step drawing similar to that one with a simple two
diameter shaft.
I have the X axis to the right, (becomes Z) and the Y axis point up (becomes
X) on the screen, with the centerline at the bottom. O.O is at the right
end, and the centerline.

No matter what I do, I can't get the Gcodes to come out with the needed cuts
to make the piece, I do get a Code for the contour, but not a code that
would work for cutting the piece,
Suggestions?
