I have now made a sketch, but I want to edit the degree/angle of a line, how do I do that? I have tried with normals, but they only show lenghts. Thanks for helping me out.

    I can't really understand the question from the way it's phrased, but in sketcher, typing a negative value will flip things around, but it won;t show the negative value. So, say you have a line that leans to the right 30deg and is dimensioned from the right datum plane, by making the angle -30, it'll lean left 30deg.

    I don't know what you mean by the "normals" but if you right-click on the sketch in the model tree and choose "Edit", the dimensions will show up. Double-click the dim of your choice to enter a new value, hit enter, and then regenerate the model. Or if you choose "Edit Definition" (PTC: would you please rename that back to "Redefine"?), that will take you back to inside the sketch to do any thing you wish to it.

    the way i see it, i think you should still use "normal". click the 2 adjacent lines and middle click between them. that will give you the angle.
