Difficulty in adding angular dimensions to the same family object.

[promosengenharia]

Boa tarde a todos, como estão?
Estou usando o google tradutor, então peço desculpas pelos erros.
Preciso fazer uma família de tirantes para um muro de contenção, e vou precisar inserir o valor de dois ângulos diferentes, 
um em relação ao eixo Y e outro em relação ao Z, mas não estou conseguindo. 
Alguém pode me ajudar por favor?Abaixo está o arquivo em questão.
Muito obrigado.

Good afternoon everyone, how are you?

I'm using google translate, so I apologize for the mistakes.

I need to make a family of ties for a retaining wall, and I'll need to enter the value of two different angles, one in relation to the Y axis and the other in relation to Z, but I'm not succeeding. Can anyone help me please?
Below is the file in question.

Thank you very much.

Try this one.

I created another Ref. Line in Plan View, hosted the existing Ref. Line to this new Ref. Line (via Edit Work Plane=>Pick Plane), pulled the "Angulo" Dimension between the 2 Ref. Lines in 3D View and pulled the "Rotate" Dimension between the Ref. Line and Ref. Plane in Plan View.

Why can't you rotate the family directly in the project?

[barthbradley]

Funny, that's the first thing I thought of and tried. I couldn't readily figure out how to rotate about the x,y origin point. Even tried making the RLs "Not a Reference", but to no avail.  What do you think? What am I missing, besides more coffee?  😉

...that and it's also a square base. 

[ToanDN]

Oh I didn't notice there was a base.   Nevermind then.

Thank you so much BARTH BRADLEY, I don't know how to thank you,

this is exactly what I need.

God bless you.

FWIW.  Just killing time until the sandwiches arrive.  😉

@barthbradley.

Good morning, how are you?

Could you point me to a video or course that teaches methods of creating families, 
including the one you used to solve my problem, please?

Thanks.

It's all about Work Planes.  I would suggest using Google to search for tutorials, articles and videos about Work Planes in general. 

Here's a kick-start:
