Edit Copper Shape Boundary

Hi

I am trying to change the Copper shape boundary to let us say 30 degrees.

But the only option i am getting under segment type is Line, Line 45, Line Orthogonal.

    When drawing the shape you can use Shape - Polygon then set the segment type to just a line (which is any angle line), then pick your starting point, now type polar in the command line and a popup will allow you to set the distance (it says radius but it's the length of the line you are adding), the popup the asks for the angle, the line is then added at this location. Type polar to add the next part of the line.
