Limit Rotation on a dynamic block between the angles of 270 to 360/0

Hi I am creating a dynamic block that has for legs one in each corner and each leg can only rotate 90 degree's, the legs are also telescopic so I have used the polar stretch parameter, its worked perfectly well on three legs with the minimum and maximum angles of 0 to 90, 90 to 180, 180 to 270 BUT when i try to limit the last leg to 270 to 360 or 0 it will not work, can someone tell me where I am going wrong please.

Does 270 to 359.99 yield acceptable results?

Hi no it just resets back to 0 and there's no limitations on the action it can rotate 360 degree's, I fact I can only set it to whole numbers.

I'm not at work now, but you should be able to enter fractions of a degree. Check your UNITS>angle precision is set to. You might also try 0 to -90

Share the block file.  As hwalker demonstrated, setting the minimum angle of the polar parameter to 270 and the max angle of 360 works fine.  I can't even guess what you have done to make it not work.
