    Not a bad idea. Share then?
    As I remember, we have no function or parameter with the angle.
    But then it's not difficult to calculate:
    tg(ALFA) = (y1 - y0)/(x1 - x0)
    tg(45) = 1

    Also, I suggest using Tree View instead of Grid Table, as in next form:

    UPD If you click on the CLine in the tree, then the focus goes on the CLine and the CLine is highlighted.
