Where am I going wrong - setting print bed size

I use a A8 and a RAMPS board with Marlin controlled via Repetier Host.

The problem I have is that the print bed layout in Reptier does not allow me to place items correctly as it does not recognise the offset I placed for the Bed Left.

I have set Bed Left as -40 to allow the nozzle to move off the bed  ( X0 is the front left corner of the bed. This is confirmed if I move the nozzle and check the position).

In the print layout however the 40mm offset is treated as part of the print bed so I have to shuffle the print across otherwise it prints off the left side of the actual bed.

How do I correct for this issue as I'm sure I've set something wrong ?
