RAM Connection/RAM SS brace angle override

It would be nice if the integrated RAM Connection would allow a permanent override of brace angle on CBB and CVR connections.  RAM SS designs to an analytical line at the top of the beams, and we design braced frame connections to the centerline.  the result is that the brace angle is off by over a degree at times and the gusset geometry can be affected significantly.  Currently i name my connection in the module by the true angle so i don't have to re measure every time, then temporarily override the brace angle in the connection pad, but it would be really nice if that override held so we didn't have to jump through so many hoops.
