New RoboDK CAM question / Issue

#1
I am trying the new CAM software embedded in RoboDK and am having issues with my surface normals being backwards.  When I select multi-axis machining, the drive surfaces normals are 180 degrees backwards.  I cannot seem to find anywhere to change that.  Hopefully the pic below loads - I removed the stock and part so you can see the arrows for retract/clearance facing "inward", they need to be 180 out... RoboDK is reading the wrong side of the drive surfaces that I select.  Any ideas?

You can use the Geodesic strategy to configure the machining side.
The corresponding option is available in the advanced settings of the Geodetic strategy:
(Advanced - Surface paths - Pattern: Advanced - Surface normal: Machine on opposite side )
