If you are just talking about the view on the preview screen. That is easily manipulated with the mouse. The mouse wheel will zoom in and out, or right click on the screen and dragging up and down will do the same. Left click and drag on the preview screen will change the centering position, and holding the shift key + left click dragging will rotate the image (in 3-D).

If you look at your pictures, you can see the table limit (the fine dotted red 3-d rectange). The X0,Y0 corner of that is going right down though the center of the tool paths.
If you would touch off so that the current position of x and y (your machine origin) is something like x4 and y4. The file should run for you.

There are several way you can do that, you can press the touch off button and input 4, or you can jog over 4 and press the touch off button and press enter.
There are more ways to do it, but baby steps first.



Yes I think I am getting it
