This may be in the pipe: Some lathe equipment supports cutting from both X+ and X-, from dual turret machines on the high end to the Tormach on the lower. For one, the simulation and toolpath engine doesn't support this, ie, all tool paths are on the same side of the part. Although it's the same profile either way, it isn't a true representaion of what's actually happening. You can define the proper 'looking' tool in the Tool Lib, by rotating 180 degrees, but you have to play games with spindle rotation to maintain the tool's handedness, which will generate the wrong 'M' codes. I would like to see another check box that says maybe, 'X+'., which would indicate this, explicitly.
