      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.
        end if seems not to work

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

            like:

            If var.y_2>var.y_3																; workpiece Zero coordinates
            set var.x_5=var.x_4+(COS(ARCTAN(var.m_1))+COS(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
            set var.y_5=var.y_4+(SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_1))+SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
            end if
            
            If var.y_2<var.y_3
            set var.x_5=var.x_4+(COS(ARCTAN(var.m_1))-COS(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
            set var.y_5=var.y_4+(SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_1))-SIN(ARCTAN(var.m_2)))*var.d_probe/2
            end if

                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

                              getting Error: line 89 column 20: meta command: unknown value 'atan'

                              @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 { }.
