Point Feature Label Rotation

BrianO_keefe — Tue, 26 Jun 2018 18:49:36 GMT

I have spent a good couple of hours trying to figure out why I can't get these labels to rotate on a web map.

I thought I had done this before.

I've set the labels on the MXD to rotate based on an ANGLE field in the point feature class. But nothing I do on the AGOL side shows those rotated labels. I can create an AGOL layer from the MapServer version, the FeatureServer version, I can adjust everything I know how to adjust and nothing makes those labels display rotated.

Are point feature labels unable to be rotated on an AGOL Web Map?

Brain,

I do not know of any ability to rotate label on a layer in an AGOL web map when choosing to create the label inside the web map.

I'm not publishing an entire map/MXD, but here's a screenshot of a hosted feature label with rotated symbols based on attributes in AGOL.
