Hi, Andy
Give this .LSET a try, It's a work in progress lset based on mill screens, Has Tab pop-out for lathe.
Running in Mill Mode, If you load the .lset mach3 switches to lathe XZ view and run's fine.
Or load Mach3Turn then load It with load Views.
I think it may ease your aggravation, Let me now.
Thanks, Chip
