Hello, Gwyddion uses a left-handed coordinate system.  This cannot be
changed.

If you talk about images left-handed is the norm while if you talk about
data values at some Cartesian coordinates right-handed is the norm.
Gwyddion does a bit of both so a choice had to be made – and it is
left-handed.

We tried to explain in the user guide how direction and angles in the
image plane are to be understood.  If something is inconsistent with
this description please complain.

Regards,

Yeti
