Wire tee - angle 2 - direction?

Hi,
I am using ACE 2006. In drawing configuration, I have my wire tee set to "Angle 2". I like how this works, but I'd like to know if I can control the direction that the angle is drawn.

For example, I have drawn a horizontal wire. Next I draw a vertical wire that connects to the horizontal wire from the bottom. The automatically created angled wire tee starts at the connection point on the horizontal line and goes down and to the right.

Similarly, if I draw a vertical wire that connects to the horizontal wire from the top, the angled wire tee starts at the connection point on the horizontal line and goes up and to the right.

What if I want the tee to be drawn going up and to the left, or down and to the left? Does anyone know if I can do this?

thanks,
Paul

Please try this and see if it gives you what you need... for an angled tee
conection that you'd like to alter, select the "Toggle Angled Tee Markers"
command from the "connection dot" toolbar flyout. Select the tee marker (or
markers) and hit [Enter]. Now hit [Space bar] to toggle the tee symbol
through various orientations. Select [ESC] when you're satisfied. Let me
know if it seems that I'm not understanding your question.
Thanks!
Nate.
