change options for angles for the "constrain" option

when I copy or move elements, I can check the "constrain" option that limits movement to 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270.

 

I happen to have things to copy in 45° and wonder if there is a way to add angles besides the 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°?

I can manually adjust to 45° and Revit does an OK job locking onto the 45°F instead of 46°, but it still takes some patience to get the angle right. So making the 45°, 135° etc. added options would be nice. But i didn't see a way to set that. 

 

I'm learning some dynamo, in case that offers an option.

Dynamo as an option for what?

to change the original 0°, 90°, 180° and 270° to something else. 

 

obviously if there is a way to do it in Revit directly, that would be better.
