Gann Fann and Line drawn at the same angle are showing diferent degree readings in Compact Tool Values Window.

Setup:
Value Increment In Bars in Chart Settings: 14
Value Increment In Bar set From Tool in Gann Fann Settings: 14
Line drawn at fixed 45 degree angle. Compact Tool Values is showing 45 degrees.
Gann Fan line drawn at 1 angle. Compact Tool Values Window is showing 35.89 degrees.

The lines are parallel, but the reading are different.

Is there something that I'm missing in settings?

Thanks,
Max.

The angle that is displayed is based on a virtual line that is drawn from the first anchor point to the second anchor point. On the Value Increment Per Bar Set From options, if you have selected either From Tool or From Chart Settings, then you will see the line when you initially drawing the Gann Fan.

If you select the drawing, you will see the anchor points as either a hollow circle or a hollow square (depending on how you have them set to display in your Tool Settings). You need to compare your drawn line against the location of the anchor points. See the attached image to see where the second anchor point is.
