6 days ago I propose to:
- enable some minimum threshold distance between fingers for map rotation gesture in 3D Terrain mode. Otherwise the map rotates accidentally if I want to change viewing polar angle using two fingers swipe in 3D Terrain mode.
- enable some maximum threshold distance between fingers for two fingers swipe in 3D Terrain mode
- add buttons for camera view adjustment in 3D Terrain mode: rotate clockwise/counterclockwise, increase/decrease polar angle
- make it possible to set up camera view direction to the sky (disable current limitations for polar angle). The reason is to see the route in 3D Terrain mode from mountain lowland to the summit (see video attached).

Description
Now that the 3D view is in full swing (and it's working really well, so thanks for that!), being able to easily move the virtual camera around in order to get the right view of a hilly route has become desirable. Rotating the map is the weakspot here - it's often a little cumbersome, and close to impossible one-handed.
Describe the solution you'd like
The double tap and swipe gesture for zooming is only using one axis. You could use the other axis for map rotation.
[edit: I suppose it'd make sense to have quite a large 'deadzone' to stop accidental rotations, unless you're in manual rotate mode already]
Describe alternatives you've considered
Having a pair of buttons that can be switched on for a profile (or making the +/- buttons have an alternate mode, perhaps) would also work, but takes up screen space (or adds another mode to confuse people), and I think the gestures would work pretty intuitively.
