angular dimensions above 180°

pwp
How can I indicate angular dimensions above 180°? The tool always extends the ray from which I start. This way the first 180° always gets cut off...

Angular dimension >180°

The angle above should be measured as 225° in stead off 45°...

Angular dimensions were revamped in version 2.2.0-rc1. With that version angular dimensions > 180° are possible.
Before that version angular dimensions are always <= 180°.

For Windows you can use latest nightly build from SourceForge.
But for other OS we currently don't have nightly builds.

Have you tried using a negative angular dimension ? (if N° > 180, using 360° - N°)
