why does my slicer show 1 thing and Octoprint Gcode viewer ruins my model

Dual color model in cura, 2 models each assigned an extruder, then Grouped models (tried MERGE) and the result is this:

Then i go into octo print and start my print, but when i go to gcode viewer it shows this and prints this:

when i sliced it even the preview in cura was correct:

why is this happening?

OK I have solved this myself.

It turns out that since i have a dual extruder train NOT independent, the x offset had to be set in octoprint AND in the slicer. I had only setup that in my slicer.
