[APBeta] Galaxy position angle

[Gary A. Ferguson]

Perhaps for an undefined position angle, you should just draw a circle.

Subject: [APBeta] Galaxy position angle

If a catalogue has a defined position angle for a galaxy then it is drawn
oriented at that position angle in the FoV. If it doesn't have a position
angle defined, it is shown with position angle = 0. It would seem that (a)
this causes confusion, and (b) a method of indicating that a galaxy does not
have a position angle defined should be introduced. 

Any ideas?
