    align left

    I went into code wizard and edited it to not output block numbers, now theres spaces in front most of the lines and I can't get rid of them, I've been through every dialogue box in code wizard but can't find anything

    I want all the text in the file to align to the left of the page,
    anybody know how to do it?

    Spaces are not output by the post. They are "forced" by the other commands output. If you look at the next code output after the block # you'll find it has a space in front of it. Somewhere in the formatting you might find a " G" used to output the gcode.

    So... You have to go thru the entire post to find everywhere there is a space and remove it manually. Your machine probably doesnt care about the space. If I were you I wouldn't worry about it either. Lots of extra work for something that doesn't make the machine run any better.

    most of those spaces should be coming from the format table at the top of wizard tree.

    if you look at the list you will notice the letter descriptions have spaces in them, take them out and it should get rid of most of them if it doesn't they will be in each constructor box between tokens.

    if the only spaces your worried about are the line starts focus on the letter descriptions that are normally at the begining of every line (ie. Gcycles and codes)

    may be more trouble than worth, i have a space on mine with no numbers but every line starts with a space so it's all in line.

    run the trace in the wizard and see if the alignment problem is tied to a specific constructor, that may help you find the odd ones.
