Dynamic inputs - how to show absolute angle instead of relative?

Hi.
when using Dynamic inputs the angle show as relative with range up to 180 degrres and not absolute,270 degrees for example and also dosen't allow for absolute input.
is there a way to change it?
I've tried to change DYNDIGRIP and DYNPICOORDS but it didn't help.
see attached screenshot that shows the issue...
Thanks,

  • There doesn't seem to be a way to change it, though it does display the absolute angle in the status bar and you can use absolute angles in the dynamic input but you have to take care of the initial direction that you draw the line because the absolute angle is relative to the original direction (so it is not that absolute after all).

    As long as you draw your line in the positive angle direction the absolute angle input in the dynamic inputs does work and things will end up in the right direction.
