Pin radius vicinity issues
Hi,
This problem below got caught up on another thread with a different problem, thought best to start a new thread for it.
My particular problem here comes from user manipulation via Manage Your Places of the radius of pins. It is slow, it is jerky and it is buggy and what it did some weeks back was jump on one particular pin and expand it to cover the entire world which basically overwrote every other location I had set. Why it would overwrite these without the user changing the settings for said pictures themselves is absolute stupidity, but I digress.
Rebuilding libraries etc. is not going to retract the radius of that circle I am assuming and restore all of the original locations I had. Anyway, I took a deep breath and decided to approach places a little differently and have a lot less specific places. Before I might have had 15 photo locations for a town, now the pics will come under just the town name.
So I have been going through renaming one of the fifteen pins (just from this one town as an example) as the town name, expanding it to cover the area the 15 covered then I delete off the other 14 as places. Time consuming and laborious but I see an eventual sensible outcome from it and in theory quicker to rename all my lost places.
The problem is that the radius issue keeps happening, half a dozen times in the past 3 or 4 days alone and this meant that roughly 2500 pics I had relabelled were once again overwritten with the location of the pin with the expanded radius. And I'm back to square one.
So is there any workaround for this particular Places problem?
Thanks,
C.
