Hi nos, are you talking about the Transform > Rotate command here, or are you talking about rotating by grabbing the handle on the edit frame?
For the Transform > Rotate command there will be actually 2 angles shown when you are in the command. One will be the angle readout beneath the xyz input control on bottom toolbar. This readout is always present for every command when you are picking points - it shows the angle in the construction plane formed by the line between the previous picked point and the current point, with 0 being the x axis.
But there is a second angle that is specific to the Rotate command itself, it shows up in the upper-right command options when running that command, here:
That one does show the angle with 0° being along the first reference point direction as you are asking.
