[Qgis-user] rotating labels from attribute, how to use 0-360 (in place of -180 - 180)

[Jonathan]

Hi Bob,
   Using QGIS 2.8.3, and I'm guessing you're referring to symbol 
rotation, the range is 0 to 360 degrees.

If you want to use an attribute, you can easily do on-the-fly 
calculations by clicking on the little symbol to the right of "Angle" 
box, and selecting "Edit". Use this expression builder to set the 
expression you want to be used for calculating your symbols rotation.

I may be able to tweak the output from AutoCAD to get the expected rotation, but is there a way to change the rotation limit values in QGIS on the fly via an expression?
