W axis screws back plot up abit when u move the W it moves the backplot 
screen by that ammount.. but code runs normal so just have to take that 
into account the backplot will not be as code runs..

see here part of my ini i missed alot out to make it easyer to see

unless u wish to make a patch to try sort that out.. seperate the XZ and 
VW plots..
i have no idea how todo that..
