Hi

There was an option to create a collection when right-clicking a photo pin on the map I used before.
Now I cannot get it to work.
Only option I get is "Add GPS coordinates to selected photographs".
Any idea what's causing this?

This is the context menu I miss

That menu item only shows up if the pin has multiple photos. If the pin doesnt have a number on it (single photo) then the menu item doesnt show.

Well, it doesn't help in my case. All pins have the same behavior and one option, see below...

I noticed that if I slightly move the cursor when right-clicking, it works most of the time.
Guess it could be a driver- or GPU issue.
 
I see the same thing you do. Move the mouse while right clicking works. Hold mouse still fails just like yours does. I reckon it's a bug.

Do Mac users see the same thing?
 
No problems on my Mac, but see the same issue on Windows. I agree that it looks like a bug.
 
I'm on Catalina and didn't know about this but have just tested it and it works fine, as long as there's more than one image, as previously mentioned.

I will send in a bug report :pigeon:
Thanks for all input.

Same behavior here on my system with Lr 11.1 on Windows 10. Moving slightly the cursor while right-clicking makes the full contextual menu appear. Looks like a bug.
