Steve, look at your attached image again and focus in on the far left, in the lower half. There is a border-box that is labelled "Angle Dimensions". The preview circle shows what your dimensions will look like on paper. I think this dimstyle was intended for side x side dimensions, not nested dimensions like what you've got, where it can cause confusion. Personally the degree symbol is what I see first so I know which way the dim is oriented, but I can see where it could raise questions to casual perusal.
The first attachment "rotated dims.png" is where I tried to duplicate what you did to see if the pick-order of the centerlines created the isssue. It does not. Regardless of which CL is selected first the dims always end up like yours. That said, see the second attached "horizontal dims.png". I typicall do my angular dimensions in this fashion. All dimensions can be read from the bottom of the drawing. You might have to create your own dimstyle or modify an existing one to fix your situation. Possibly open your drawing template and make the changes there.
Anyway, happy Inventing!
