How to reset X0 Y0 after rotating part?

Post by kncmachine »

After rotating a part 90 deg to nest in material better. The X0 Y0 origin changes. How do you reset the part so the X0 Y0 is at the bottom left corner? It would make life a little easier when setting the origin in Mach3. Thanks for any replies. Ken

Look at the very bottom of the screen, right of the centre.

You should see Pos X.............Y.............A (degrees)

Just punch zero into the X & Y boxes.
