Hello Russell,

thank you for the feedback, I am actually using arcgis api for javascript, I am wondering if there is a property on which I can assign the rotation on a 2D symbol marker, for example on a 3d type  you can assign heading to a a certain angle.

let symbol = {

type: "simple-marker",

style: "triangle",

color: "blue",

size: "8px",

outline: {

color:"red",

width: 3

}

rotation/angle/heading: 90  // Does this kind of property exist for 2D symbol????

};

Set the rotation by attribute under the styling pane for the layer
