Command: Invert Direction

Function: The command reverses the CNC program and sets the path elements in reverse order. The block numbers of the CNC program are also reset automatically.

Call: CNC menu

Requirement: A CNC path is open in the editor.

Constraint

Reversing the CNC path is possible under the following conditions:

If preprocessing was selected for the CNC program, then the G41/G42 blocks are processed in the reverse program: G41 becomes G42 and G42 becomes G41. The direction of the correction is also reversed.

If the CNC program contains arcs that are defined with an opening angle (parameter K for 2D elements or parameter T for 3D elements), then the command does not generate exact reversed arcs.

If the CNC path was programmed by the following means, then reversing is not possible.
