Hello,

How can I rotate (i.e Heading) a moving icon (2D) loaded on the map?

Thanks.

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

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????

};
