X and Y switched was created by cutnweld
Good morning, this morning I was cutting some nested and rotated parts done in conversational. I stopped the cut to move my work Y zero, and now the X and Y are switched in the G54WCS. Any ideas how I can switch it back?

Not sure I'm getting the question right but if you simply want to switch the X- and Y-offset values in the G54 WCS then these MDI commands should do the trick:
Code:
#<_xoffset> = #5221 #<_yoffset> = #5222 G10 L2 P1 X#<_yoffset> Y#<_xoffset>

Thanks. What i am actually meaning is that now my table X and Y are switched. Normally X for me is when it moves left to right. Y is towards and away from me. Now it is the exact opposite. Y moves side to side, X in and out, the little xy display that shows in the table display also shows that orientation, X and Y opposite what they used to be. As if the whole table somehow got rotated 90 degrees

Sounds like you may have rotated the XY plane by 90°. Try this MDI command:
Code:
G10 L2 P1 R0

Well, you wrote about 'rotated parts' so it kind of makes sense that the conversational would use the 'R' offset to do that. Glad you got it working.
