Stop Symbols from Ratating with Map

Question

Hey, so I am rotating my map at a five degree angle so I can fit certain features in and the symbols rotate too.

How do I prevent/remedy this?

Thanks!

This is exactly what I was trying to find.  That option is buried deep.

Thank you.

If you are having trouble with text labels rotating sideways when you rotate your data frame, you can also adjust it on the Label toolbar, under "Options". Then check/uncheck "Data Frame Rotation".

You can also set symbol rotation from the Symbology tab of the layer properties.

Choose <expression> from the pulldown menu, click the calculator button, and enter a fixed value in the Expression text box. Or you can choose an attribute, or even a random angle to make things more interesting!
