Degrees round wrong way

The plum cut and seat cut angles are round the wrong way if I’m doing a 24 degree roof it’s showing the plumb cut 66 and seat 24

Hey guys.

Brilliant app for roof framing

Quality app never had any problems using it. I’m sure people giving negative reviews just don’t have much knowledge on roofs and are imputing wrong data. Would definitely recommend this app for roofs
