I've already given up, and done it the standard way. I tried drawing it at 45 degrees as a library symbol, but the pins still had to be at 90 degrees. I was just designing a matrix, with about 50 odd diodes, and thought it might be easier to rotate the diodes 90 degrees.

Why would you want to rotate a symbol in Schematic capture to something other than 90 degrees.? This not standard practice. Also, keep in mind that your pins of the symbol need to end up on a schematic grid point for wire connection to be completed.. Answer: I do not even believe you can adjust the rotation of a symbol in schematic to some angle other than 90 degrees.. Workaround: If you are all fired up to still do it.. you will need to create the symbol at 45 degrees in the library to start with.. just make sure the pins are on an even 100mil grid.. Best wishes..
