What would cause my G2's and G3's to be reversed?
Example
N190G2X7.3496Y7.0625I4.4685J4.1524
Should be
N190G3X7.3496Y7.0625I4.4685J4.1524
All the lines in the code are output reversed.

Sounds like something that would be easy to change in the post processor setup.

This is code meant to be run on a 'real' cnc or is it on a retrofit?

It’s possible that the post processor is at fault but if it worked for you before I would look in the machining attributes or even a setting attached to the tool. This has happened to me before but so long ago that I forget what it was. Normally you will just have to select or deselect a box and all will be good again.

Maybe a 'mirror toolpath' function of some sort would have that effect?

I cant seem to find the setting to change...first time playing with the software in the lab at school. It works really good with solidworks 2007. The lab has a CNC but I want to save the NC to use on my DIY router. The CNC mill in the lab shows the G2 G3 reversed when graphed so some setting is wrong somewhere.

when i was setting up the post for my prototrak machines, i found that all of my g2 and g3 were swapped.

I went into the post and into CNC-Info | NC Codes...

I then swapped g2 to g3 and g3 to g2.

It seemed to take care of all my backwards arcs.
