My NC program has the origin defined as the center of my part. I jog my machine over to the bottom right corner (where I would like for it to be cut out of the 4x8 sheet) and click define home as shown in the video for defining home https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jW1T-GChNf0&t=2s
In the video, the toolpath and home crosshair move to the pink dot where the machine currently is.
However, when I did this, all that happened was my X and Y numbers were zeroed and my pink dot moved to the middle; the pattern didn’t move to the pink dot like I hoped it would. I’d like to have it update, so I can see roughly how close to the edge of the stock I’m getting.
If there’s no simple answer, I’m just gonna move my origin in my program to the bottom right corner, jog the machine as far into that corner as I dare go, and set home there. See attached screenshot with what I see on screen vs what I’d like to see based on the position of my machine and the home I set.
Try clicking on the preview window to cycle through the different display options. I’ve seen it happen that it doesn’t update until the display is cycled. I’ve been meaning to dig into why that is sometimes the case
Thanks for the reply. Tried this, unfortunately 
Yeah this is 100% what I would expect to happen.
What happens if you refresh the browser window?
Tried refreshing, different browser, restart fluidNC… Only thing I might have not done since I noticed the issue is a machine power cycle. I’ll try that next.
We bought this M4.0 used on ebay, I updated the firmware to 1.05 using the windows .zip file as you show in youtube… Is there another file, .yaml or otherwise, that wouldn’t have been updated by running the fullinstall .bat file, that may be outdated and causing an issue with the coordinate display? I’m not a strong coding guy…
Unrelated side note - the /maslow_scale_X & Y have saved my life. I calibrated with decent fitness over and over but was 1/8" large in X and 1/2" small in Y (on a nominal 28" diam circle test cut). Assuming it’s something with the hardware in my machine, or frame… either way until I figure it out, I’m grateful that option is there. Within a 1/16th now and about to try another minor adjustment.
Just trying to get caught up on all the context with this machine and it’s operation have been enlightening. Will do a post soon with everything I’ve noticed so far as a 6yr machinist.
