How do I alter my cut path for plasma cutting?

I'm using fusion to model parts to transfer to my go torch plasma CNC which uses design edge software. I use the torch mate post processor to transfer everything to g code, which seems to work a lot better than using .dxf format like the plasmacam instructions say. Everything cuts great except for that I can't figure out how to designate which side of the line to pierce on. It seems to want to lead in from the inside on every cut, and that ruins the outside edge of my parts. I would like to be able to designate the order of the cuts and also where to lead in. Any info would be appreciated

When you pick a profile these a red arrow showing the direction of cut, just click it to change the direction\side.
