I'm using LinuxCNC as part of a wire EDM, and it's also my first experience with Linux of any sort.
When I load a job, a 2D representation appears on the Preview tab and on the figure is an "X", where cutting will start. Depending upon the shape of the blank and the outline of the part, it's sometimes better to have the starting point elsewhere. Is this something that can be changed within LinuxCNC, or can it only be done in the program that generated the G-code file (Vcarve, in my case)?
Thanks
