Sims 3 camera - rotate without using the keyboard?

texxx78

I'm yet trying to readjust and relearn to use 3's camera, as i just reinstalled the game 3 days ago... for the most part it has been kind of easy but i miss rotating with my mouse... is there a simpler way to rotate the camera without using the keyboard?

I use my
Mouse by right clicking(or holding down the mouse wheel can’t remember which)and moving the direction I want to go.I also believe there are arrows in-game near the arrows you click to go up or down but I could be wrong

If you're using a mouse, hold down the middle mouse button and move the mouse around. This rotates in any direction you want, not just a simple rotation left or right, so it may take a bit of finesse to keep the angle where you want it.

If you're using your laptop's touchpad, you may or may not be able to configure it to do what you want:
