My son and I have had this very argument. I think the top one is right as he thinks it's the bottom one. I have a coding background and he has a 3D printing background. I figure that's why we're different but I know nothing about 3D printing beyond the cool stuff I see on the Internet and things he's printed for me.

I have a looking-at-the-chalkboard-in-highschool background which I’m pretty sure defines my perspective(heh).

Probably because he uses Blender which invert Z and Y axes or maybe because it's related to the nozzle POV

That makes sense!

Reading this I realized both are correct, for coding the top one, for 3d printing the bottom one.

Somehow the whole thing makes more sense in 3d printing when you move in xy dimension during the layer and z between them.

That makes sense!

I have been coding for over 20 years and the bottom one is more correct to me.

X and Y need to be on the same plane.

X and Y are on the same plane in both examples.
