Mate angle perdicting which way

Is there a secret to using the angle constraint. It never behaves the same
way .
I reverse picks and sometimes it works and a lot of the time it doesn't. If
I type in 6 it goes the wrong way so I make it -6 and nothing happens. Now I
reverse picks and maybe it works not always.
Very time consuming and frustrating.

1) use Directed Angle not Undirected angle(default.. not sure why though)
2) sometimes when it gets a little testy like you say, it helps if you put in the (-#) (ie -6) before you apply the second angle constraint
