    Soft Limits - default to on?

    Noob, first machine, just learning. I have my machine built with home switches only. When I start it up I do a reference all home and then use soft limits. Soft limits are working correctly, when I remember to turn them on. Is there a way I can default soft limits to ON? I keep forgetting to click the button to turn it on. Didn't see the option, maybe I missed it or maybe it's not there on purpose.

    If they are on when you close Mach3, then they should be on when you restart it.
