You can adjust the pitch (the angle towards the horizon) between 0 and 80 degrees. You can also set the bearing to determine which compass direction appears at the top of the map. For example, setting the bearing to 90 orients the map so that east is at the top.

Use the plugin settings to configure the initial pitch and bearing of your map and to set the pitch range. You can also choose to allow or prevent users from changing the pitch and bearing while interacting with the map.

On the demo map on this page, the initial pitch is set to 40.00, and the bearing is -50.00. The pitch is limited to a range between 10.00 and 60.00. You can adjust the pitch and bearing by rotating the map with the right mouse button or by using the CTRL + left mouse button combination.
