[Posting for other who might run into this issue and need a workaround.]
When creating a Map tour by uploading geotagged photos, it is not straightforward to manually adjust the location of images with overlapping location data.
One has to hide the slides for overlapping tour points in order to be able select, delete, and re-position the pin for the tour point who's location you want to update. If you don't hide the other slides, then when you click on Edit location, you will not be able select the current slide's point.
How would you end up with overlapping geotagged photos?
One example is taking photos of objects or documents for which you want to make a Map tour, and you take the photos in your office. When you upload the images, they will initially all be located on top of each other in the location of your office, if you had geotagging turned on when you took the photos. Your goal, however, is to edit the locations on the objects' or documents' slides, after you've initially created the Map tour.
In order to update the points in your Map tour:
- Hide all of the Map tour slides with overlapping locations, except the one you want to move.
- Now when you click on "Edit location", and you will be able to select the point's location, delete it, and set the correct location.
- Unhide the next overlapping tour point, and repeat the steps above.
Alternatively, you can strip the geolocation information from your photos before you upload them. Then you can manually place each one via Edit location, rather than having to deal with initially overlapping locations.
