Using Easel like it is a DRO?

Easel
5

X0 Y0 is a MOVE TO X0 Y0.
G10 L20 X0 Y0 will SET the current location as X0 Y0.

If you move to X123 Y123 and set that location as your work zero, then move to X50 Y50, you’re moving further right and back. Every time you change that work zero (Easel’s “Home” position), you lose the last one.

I think what you guys might want are absolute MACHINE positions. These are based on your homing switches and never change, regardless of where your current zeros are set.
This post and thread might be of interest.

Thanks! On my way.
