Cannot do a simple border line

Hello All. I’m a fairly new user with a Shapeoko 3 XXL. I’m using carbide create (B 530) to draw a simple sign. I’m laying a line around the edge of the work piece using the rectangle to create the vectors. When I do the tool path for a Vcarve, it always create this X mark going from the corner to the center.
