I am able to create a north arrow in a layout using the example in the Esri snippet (North Arrow Snippet).  The primary line in that snippet is as follows:

var northArrow = LayoutElementFactory.Instance.CreateNorthArrow(layout, llNorthArrow, mf);

But if I want to change the style of the north arrow, how would I do that?  The north arrow styles are types of fonts:

north arrow styles in font set

Thanks.

Refer to my response on your scale bar question. https://community.esri.com/message/766351-create-a-double-fill-scale-bar?et=watches.email.thread. Change scale bars for North arrows. e.g.

var northArrowItems = arcgis_2d.SearchNorthArrows("");

North arrows are style items not fonts in Pro (even though there are esri fonts that contain north arrow characters)
