Problem with dragging pin to desired location #57

In previous versions you could hold or drag the pin to where you wanted it to go, now it seem to randomly land on a different area. I thought may be there is a lag, but I still can't get it to work.

Yes. This was noted in the version 5.3 release notes

Map pins can not be dragged. Click on the desired location to move a pin.

The current versions of GeoTag use the Apple Maps framework for SwiftUI. Unfortunately that framework does not support pin dragging. I do not know if Apple will change that in the future. For now instead of dragging click where you want the pin to go.

I didn't realise that thanks. Even clicking where I want the pin to go does not work. Clicking it a few times it does not work- It just goes to a different area. I know you mentioned about the framework but what changed between the new version and the previous version? The previous version was working fine. Is there an option to revert back to the old version?

What version of macOS are you using?

There was an Apple bug that showed up in earlier versions of macOS Sonoma where the OS returned a location offset in the y axis from where you actually clicked. Apple fixed that in macOS 14.4 or 14.4.1. Is that what you are seeing or is this something else?
