Can I use decimal values for StartAngle?

[Scott Rossi]

Hi William:

With visual effects, you can either select an object to show/hide with a
visual effect as you've done, or you can restrict a visual effect to a
rect:
lock screen for visual effect in rect (the rect of control 1)

For startAngle (and most of LiveCode's dimensional properties) I believe
you're pretty much limited to integer values. Some properties such as the
scroll of fields will generate errors upon attempting to set a decimal
value. Other properties like start/arc angles are more forgiving and
simply ignore the decimal.  But I don't think LiveCode will natively
render decimal values for angle values.
