A video imaging system and method that allow a user to manipulate an image displayed on a video display are disclosed. The video display includes a mechanism that controls a portion of a virtual display area to be shown on the display. The video imaging system and method of the present invention include a virtual display that is mappable to an actual video display. A mapping notation is provided to allow for a virtual three-dimensional orientation or mapping notation icon, which allows the user to control which portion of the virtual image area is displayed with respect to the entire virtual image area. The mapping notation icon is manipulated, by a device, such as a mouse or trackball, to allow the user to manipulate the virtual image area to display another portion of the virtual image area.
