General Mach Discussion / Re: Mach 3 Display not showing G Code anymore

I know nothing of your Custom Piece but G90.1 will place Mach3 into Absolute mode when it comes to reproducing arcs.
Different CAD/CAM software may use one of two different methods for defining and producing the Gcode for arcs - some prefer Incremental whilst others prefer Absolute. If arcs are used within a Gcode file the appropriate G91.1 / G90.1 should always be specified but unfortunately, some post-processors do not do this and confusion is created within Mach3 (the common cause of the crop circles).
