Force home position on indexing not working in Version 2020

Different results posting the same program with the same post processer in different Software release versions.

“Force home position on indexing” does not output the same value in both versions.

Version: Build 278, Release: 2019.3 - Date: Tue 12/11/2018 posts this code:

Outputs:  G53 G0 X-29. Y-8.

NOW:

Version: Build 239, Release: 2020.1 - Date: Tue 6/25/2019 posts this code:

Outputs:  G53 G0 X-1.1417. Y-0.315

Where is it getting these X,Y values?

Can't tell you why it is this way, but the values are a convert from metric to inch:

29mm = 1.1417in

8mm = 0.315in

Good eye, I'll look at the measure units and see in the part is metric!

Thanks!

So it seems like this issue must be in the updated release.  Why would we not get the same G53 return point  with the same Post Processor in two different Versions of the software?  To me that suggests its in the software!  Would there be a setting for this?
