Having a layer symbol with a transparent background

[DanielComins]

I am trying to update the fire maps for the region and in the past the responsible person has been able to use a compass wheel with a transparent background (see below). These are on the position of the fire towers. 

So far, I have managed to change the symbol to a compass wheel, but the background isn't transparent. Is there a way to fix this?

@DanielComins I'm not sure if this helps.

• Right-click on the layer in Content's Pane >> Symbology
• Click Properties >> Layers Icon
• Click on 'Shape' that is used in background. In my case, the white circle is selected:

• Scroll down in 'Appearance' Group >> Color drop-down >> Choose 'No Color'

• Click Apply
