IMHO if the rotvector field is active when pressing OK, it should pop up that
dialog (or maybe even ignore changes altogether and close the dialog - I do not
know nor do I care) if |angle| > 180. Nowhere else.

I'd personally want this be fixed soon.. I'm stuck using MLCAD3.2 because of

(...) Oh yeah. I encountered this one the other day too. The angle gets set to a very large number. I believe that the normal/angle mapping only applies to rotations, not scaling and should be ignored when ||R||!=1. Tim (17 years ago, 16-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
