Marked custom home, and paused a cut. When I resumed it heading off the wrong way.

I haven't tried to reproduce this, but this is the series of steps I did, and what happened. Just wanted to document this.

  1. Had a small project that was defined around 0.
  2. Didn't want to actual cut it on wood at 0, since I had to work around wood I had left, so moved Sled 500-1000mm to the left, and marked this as home.
  3. Started cut, and everything worked great.
  4. Had a problem where I had to pause cut.
  5. When I hit resume, sled headed off far to left, even though I didn't really need to move it at all.
  6. I had to cancel cut, as it was heading off the work-surface.
  7. Moved sled to a new area, and marked as new home.
  8. Restarted cut, and everything proceeded normally.

Hmmm...My instinct is that since G2 commands rely on the previous line to be computed correctly resuming from a pause with a G2 line could cause this kind of trouble.

I guess that the simplest solution would be to send a G1 line to go back to the same spot after a pause/resume?
