Angle datum - any way to change sign of dimension?

Angle datum - any way to change sign of dimension?

All,

I've created a datum plane (DTM5) with references through the center
axis of my part, at a -22.5 degree angle from the RIGHT datum plane. I
have a partial view on my drawing that only shows the upper right
quadrant of the ring and I'd like to show the dimension between the
RIGHT plane and DTM5 as 22.5 degrees, not negative 22.5 degrees.

Without using a created dimension, how can I accomplish this? Ideally,
I'd like to make a change in the model so that a 22.5 degree offset from
RIGHT gives me the same result as -22.5 degrees is giving me now. Any
ideas?

Thanks,
Tyler
