thanks

Are you sure your symbols are 3-D? Switch to top/plan. If it says the symbol is 2-D, it has 2-D components. Such a symbol is restricted from rotating out of the XY plane because such a rotation would break the linkage between the 2-D and 3-D components. You can make the symbol purely 3-D by editing the symbol while in top/plan and removing all its 3-D components, or you can copy and paste the 3-D components into a new symbol.
