How do you focus camera around either a planet or manuever node while still controlling your craft?

I may just be missing something obvious I'm on low sleep with a toddler and newbord but I haven't been able to figure it out. If it's not a feature yet consider this a UX request or suggestion.

To focus your camera around a planet you simply double click it while in map view.

Apologies if I am misunderstanding your question but i dont think you can directly focus on the maneuver node itself

Thank you! Being able to focus the camera on the node would be a nice feature, if you’re planning your capture burn at another celestial body focusing the camera there is helpful imo over just your rocket or the planet itself.

So this is why i was having difficulty double clicking while in map view just crashes my game lol
Same unfortunately, although I have only tried earth at the moment. (it only seems to be earth that causes the crash for me) Joys of Pre-alpha:)
