#2 different axis orientations in the same time

When i home Y with ui button or by typing G28 Y in console the axis homes in one direction, but when the same G28 Y command is in .gcode file or in homing_override, it homes the other way.
I am not sure if this a mainsail issue or whatever other element on the way.
I tested this with 2 different host machines.

as i told you already in the klipper discord. mainsail just send the gcode G28 Y to klipper. nothing more. all gcode interpration or moving something is klipper itself.

and its not possible, that both are do different things, because both are only a gcode G28 Y. so there cannot be any different.

is there no option in mainsail to flip the axis or something like this?

delicate monolith
#

you can flip the axis for moving, but this will only send the reverse gcode. but this dont work for homing. homing is every time homing

what about homing_override?

delicate monolith
#

home overwrite will override your home function. but doesnt care about the direction. it just use your settings. its more a function for a "special homing routine" and it will be executed every time. you cannot home a special axis when you have this in your config.

than why does it always home to the other way?

delicate monolith
#

its not possible, that the home button homes in the reverse version as a gcode.

@red egret regardless from where you send a G28 Y it will move in the same direction. The homing direction is defined in your stepper_y section and can not be changed at all.

#

How about sending at least your klipper.log

post can be removed. it works if i don't use homing_override and home all axes at the same time with G28 instead of homing them one by one.
