      set var.var y_x_tan_rads=degrees{var.y_x_tan_rads}

      There's a space in the variable name, ie var.var y_x_tan_rads isn't a valid variable name.

        jay corrected it already.
        the problem shifted to the degrees command

          @CanDo415 i've made another change but I don't think its going to fix the issue.
          I don't know why "degrees" throws an error though as its a built in command

          degrees() is a function

          You've used curly braces instead of parentheses

          set var.y_x_tan_deg=degrees{var.y_x_tan_rads}
          

          try

          set var.y_x_tan_deg=degrees(var.y_x_tan_rads)

            @OwenD i knew it would be something about the way its been formatted

                the "-" seems important. otherwise the system gets turned the wrong way round

                  i modified it quite a bit. some points are still not ready.
                  I'm not shure how to ent the if passage.

                    You have to indent the lines you want to be part of the conditional statement, thats a place to start at least.

                          i tried this before in another case... everything unter the 2nd if wasnt done if the if doesn't match.
                          the problem of the missing end if

                            Then you simply must have done something wrong in the other case you're mentioning.

                            As reference to conditional construct have look at this.

                              @CanDo415 as @Exerqtor said, there's no end if.
                              Things have to be indented to be part of the if

                                @CanDo415 you also need to replace SIN by sin, COS by cos, ARCTAN by atan etc. See https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/Reference/Gcode_meta_commands#functions.

                                      i don't know why. sometimes it works. sometimes it fails.
                                      getting Error: line 89 column 20: meta command: unknown value 'atan'
                                      i have no idea.
                                      the calculation seems to be correct. but using G10 moves the tool right down to Y=0

                                        @Exerqtor already pointed you at the proper doc - better read it completely. In the section Expressions, it says:

                                        … when RepRapFirmware is running in CNC mode, any use of ( ) to enclose a subexpression or function parameter list must be within an expression enclosed in { }

                                        Within your macro, you apply the curly braces inconsistently, Instead of

                                        set var.m_1_rads = atan(var.m_1) ;  may not work in CNC mode, (var.m_1) is regarded as a comment
                                        

                                        write

                                        set var.m_1_rads = {atan(var.m_1)}
                                        

                                        Same is true for other function calls like degrees().

                                        In general, if writing macros, you should study the GCode meta commands completely and in-depth.

                                            @CanDo415 the reason is that standard CNC GCode uses ( and ) to enclose comments, which is an unfortunate choice. In order to be compatible with this, RRF does the same when in CNC mode unless the ( ) are themselves inside { }.
