Can you please tell me how to route the differential pairs in ANY ANGLE in Expedition PCB?
 

i am also learning Expedition and also looking for tutorials on this.

i did not find the any angle routing but found a command "modify corners" which will tune the corners into curvers. If you intend to modify corners that are fixed, locked, or both, you must select the Include Fixed and Locked Corners check box.

I think this will be helpful for u.
 

v_kumar is on the right track, but there is a way to set up the editor to route in any angle, but it will have a curve at the switch of angles.

Go to "Setup,Editor Control,General, go down to "Curve Trace Radius" and select or type in "Variable"

While in the Interactive route mode, select the trace or trace pairs starting point that you want to route, then press the F10 key which will toggle the curve trace action. If the curves snap to some grid point other than "any angle", right click the mouse button and select "Variable" from the angle selection menu. This will allow any angle routing. You should also have the routing grid set to "none" while doing this (setup,editor control,grids,route grid-"none")
