P: LrD v9.4 Can't paste GPS info in Local view

When I paste GPS data into Lightroom in the info panel where it says GPS, it doesn't save. I've done this before without any problem in the previous version of Lightroom. Updated to version 9.4 now it doesn't work. Is this a bug? Does anyone know?

    I can reproduce this with Local files (not Cloud) and have filed a bug for the team.

    I have the same issue ​@Sameer K  - I have copy-pasted GPS coordinates from Google Maps for ages but now not being accepted as input in the info panel (Lightroom Desktop 9.4). In fact even if I type the coordinates in by hand of form -35.0540822,148.01478738465863 it is not accepted.

    I suspected it was a bug.

    Hey, @eronican70264546. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll move the post to Lightroom Ecosystem discussions for now.

     

    I've tried to recreate this and couldn't get it to behave as reported. Also, please test and confirm whether the issue occurs with a specific set of steps. Please share a video & screenshots of the workflow and the system info from Lightroom Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > Upload and attach here.

     

    Thanks!

    Hi

    @Sameer K 

    I'm copying GPS data here first from Google Maps, then from another image that already has GPS data via Sony's app on my iPhone, and pasting it into an image that lacks GPS tagging. I've used both of these methods before without any problems.
