I think that's because there isn't one. There's pan, zoom, and orient. There's no tool to simply rotate the image in the plane of the screen. One can use orient and twist the part around or use the view definition tools and select 'Dynamic' where Normal rotation is available to type in a number; or use Reference and select the surfaces that define the desired orientation.

View rotation is a subset of Orient as David said.

To clarify - if you want to spin the image normal to the screen, hold down the Control-key at the same time as the Orient mouse button and instead of turning it will rotate on an axis that is perpendicular to the screen.

‌I'm guessing you're referring to Reorient which brings up the H, V, C rotation angle selectors? If so, the option can be found on the Graphics toolbar by selecting the Named Views icon. If you want to add it to the tool bar or see it in the Ribbon settings dialog in the configuration editor, select All Commands or Commands not in Ribbon.
