Dragging on the map with the mouse will give you a different look at the system, but this will not change the orientation of the scanner.

At the top left of the map are a set of icons that access various preference settings.
 
* The filter icon opens a list of boxes that can be checked/unchecked to show or hide various objects in the solar system. This can be useful if you are, for example, only interested in asteroid belts.
 
* The focus ship icon centers the map on your ship.

* The camera icon turns the red scan area displan on and off. It also lets you lock the map to the orientation of your ship. (For more on this, see "Angle", below.)
