If the non-pivot foot is on or behind a line EXTENDING through the front of the rubber, it's a wind-up position. If the back of the heel of the non-pivot foot is against the rubber, consider this to be "on" the line, and, thus in the wind-up.
If the entire non-pivot foot is in front of that line, it's the set position.
Note that in neither case must the non-pivot foot be directly in front of the rubber.
