Is there any way to rotate or set the angle of a PointSymbol3D object, like you can do for a SimpleMarkerSymobl?

Rotation is not supported in 3D at this time. It is challenging to define, particularly with marker symbols that are billboarded. Knowing rotation angles on a tilted globe is more difficult than it is in 2D. We are discussing and planning for adding rotation support to 3D in a future release.
