**⚠️ v4.0 UI Transition Notice - In Process:**
//The release of Total Launcher v4.0 has introduced significant user interface changes. Please note that this
page does not yet reflect these updates. The new layout paths, folds, and visual maps are currently being
compiled and will be deployed shortly.//

{{**Shape - Arc Options dialog. Make selection above.**
This dialog screen shows options for:
* **Start angle** - Set the starting angular point of the arc along the circular boundary. Total Launcher follows standard screen graphics coordinates, where ''0°'' points to the right (positive x-axis) and angles increase clockwise. To translate from traditional Cartesian mathematics where angles sweep counter-clockwise with ''90°'' pointing up, consult the ''arc_calc.html'' tool above to calculate the corresponding ''Start Angle''.
* **0° (Start angle value badge)** - Open a numeric input keypad to enter a precise start angle value directly instead of using the slider. Use the "calculator" on this page to convert the 'clock example / Cartesian mathematics' to Total Launcher's input format.
* **Start angle slider / adjustment buttons (- / +)** - Drag the slider handle or tap the minus (''-'') and plus (''+'') buttons to incrementally adjust the start angle in degrees.
* **Sweep angle** - Set the rotational span of the arc starting from the specified start angle. Total Launcher applies this sweep clockwise around the center. The ''arc_calc.html'' dialog helper provides the exact clockwise ''Sweep Angle'' value required to match standard mathematical representations.
* **90° (Sweep angle value badge)** - Open a numeric input keypad to enter a precise sweep angle value directly instead of using the slider.
* **Sweep angle slider / adjustment buttons (- / +)** - Drag the slider handle or tap the minus (''-'') and plus (''+'') buttons to incrementally adjust the total angular sweep of the arc.
* **Cancel (Inner Dialog)** - Discard any adjustments made to the start and sweep angles and dismiss the arc settings overlay.
* **OK** - Apply the configured start angle and sweep angle values to the arc shape definition.
Below is another clock-illustrated example of 4 starting angles with varying sweep angles:
