Lightroom Classic V11.3 Map Module fails to assign gps location

[WyleyR]

Lightroom Classic V11.3 Map Module fails to assign gps by either drag image onto map or right click on map and selecting assign location. Checking a saved location does work. I am using MacOS 12.3.1 This was working in V11.2

Both operation work for me on MacOS 12.3.1 and LrC11.3

Are you selecting the photo on the grey frame or in the center of the photo, when you drag the photo onto map?

It is very important that you select the foto itself and not the grey frame!

Yes, I was selecting the center of the photo as that is the only way to drag/drop to map.  You can not use the frame to drag onto the map. It assigngs the coordinates for me.

Try resetting LR's preferences:

LR sometimes soils its preferences file, and resetting it can fix all sorts of wonky behavior. That article explains how to restore the old preferences if resetting doesn't help.
