2.5.2 Default Dual Angle Degree Increments — 1° vs. 5°

2.5.2   layout

When entering drilling angle and VAL angle values in a Dual Angle layout, Spectre Cloud lets you choose the degree increment used when adjusting angle inputs — either 1° for fine-grained control or 5° for faster, coarser adjustment. This setting determines the default step size applied across all Dual Angle spec sheets, saving you from changing it manually every session.

🔄 The Two Increment Options

Increment Adjustment Step Best For
1° Each step changes the angle by one degree Competitive and coaching environments where fine layout adjustments matter; experienced fitters working with precise PAP data
5° Each step changes the angle by five degrees General pro shop use; shops where Dual Angle is used but high-precision tuning is not the primary goal; faster data entry

🛠️ Setting the Default Degree Increment

  1. Navigate to Settings from the top menu.
  2. Locate Layout Preferences section. 
  3. Find the Default Dual Angle Degree Increments option.
  4. Select 1° or 5° according to your shop's fitting approach. 
  5. The change takes effect immediately for all new Dual Angle spec sheets.

Note: Changing this setting does not alter angle values already saved on existing spec sheets. It only affects the step size used when adjusting angles on new or in-progress sheets going forward.
