Pre-release version 1.2113 running in demo mode

It's entirely possible that I don't understand this feature, but I'll ask for clarification.

When "Show softlimits area (if softlimits are enabled) is selected from Settings/Appearance/Workpiece area and grid setup, the displayed softlimit extents are relative to the selected work offset (G54 - G59). Since softlimits are relative to machine coordinates, shouldn't the display reflect that rather than change when the work offset is changed either by selecting an alternate work coordinate setting or setting a G52 offset?

Correction to my original post:

When changing from G54 to one of the other coordinate systems, the displayed softlimit extents DO remain relative to Machine Coordinates, BUT when using a G52 offset, the displayed extents are no longer accurate, at least as I see it. Please correct me if I'm wrong about this.

Hello Ed,

The G52/G92 temporary offset is not displayed correctly. It's a known issue. (G52/G92 works fine, only the toolpath display is wrong.)

Thanks!
