How to access front view parking camera?

Just bought my X5 a few weeks ago and when I first pulled it home and into my garage it showed me the front-view camera with hazards overlayed in yellow or red, depending on how close they were... super handy when space is tight! I think I likely pushed the parking camera button just under the radio controls to get it.



Since then, though, it seems that I only cycle between backup and 360 views. Backup isn't super useful when I'm pulling into the garage nose-first, and the 360 seems to be very washed out and low on detail, so not as helpful, either (perhaps with being out of sunlight?). If I push the parking camera button when I'm pulling in it shows one view (backup), and if I tap the iDrive controller it goes to the other view (360), but tapping again doesn't get me the front-facing view that I got the first time I used it.



Anyone know how to select or trigger the front-facing camera? I'm not talking about the ones at the front that point to the sides, but the one that shows what is directly in front and highlights things that are getting too close.
