Is there a way to get ground control to start on a specific line of the g code? I was 75% done and accidentally hit stop instead of pause ---

On what operating system are you running? Edit: If you did not do anything else, there could be a chance to find the line number in the log. ---

That engraving is beautiful! I’m glad you found a solution 😁 Another option if you don’t know the line number is to use the fast forward buttons to “fast forwards” to where you left off ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex031/uploads/maslowcnc/original/2X/c/cea0d5fe6f66ed07023a5825909535b2d39d0fb5.png) The `1>` button will take you to the next line, and the `Z>` button will take you to the next time the z-axis moves. I’m working on a change for version 1.03 which will highlight the next line of gcode in green so that it’s even easier to see exactly where on the cut you are fast forwarding to
