Angles in Inventor

(OP)
Anyone having issues with the angles in inventor?

For example I have a track that must go around 4 points.  I constrain them so you can fix one end and move it all over the screen and it acts like a chain but doens't twist.  I brought one end back to the start and began to run it throughout the path by adding 2 angle constraints.  What is happening is Invnetor seems to change its mind part way through on a couple and then I get errors. (it seems to be flipping the direction arrow so 30 deg turns into 330 deg)

Anyone else annoyed with this that may have a solution to it?  Could it be a setting or something?
