I just ticked over the 62 mark a few days ago and I hope I'm still kicking like you when I get to 82. Your an inspiration for me. When people ask me when I will retire my answer is always "NEVER" because to me retiring means giving up and doing nothing. After decades of being in the obese

Greetings all; I had asked for an explanation of why the run trace, and the initial trace, do not align in the backplot, and it was suggested that I was using something in the G90 to G92 in my code. So It removed any of that from my code, with no effect detectable in removing them. The first

Wow that is a mess... the first thing I noticed is your wrapping your code with % AND using a program end M2. You only use one or the other. M2 resets a bunch of things (see the manual) and %% does not. I commented out the G38 and corresponding G10 lines and the back plot as viewed from Z is
