Many times when I have selected all photos from en event, I can see that not all photos have the right location on map. See the attachment. There I have 14 photos that have wrong geolocation. Is there a way to drag and drop these 14 photos in one go? Or do I have to move one by one? The locate file in filewindow command just show one photo. Could it be possible to show all 14 photos in the filewindow? Then it would be quick to move them.

You can select the images you want in the file window, then set a new position by clicking on the Map and then just click the first button on the Map (the one with the tick (hake) ).
This will set this new position to all selected images

Yes, I know that. But I haven`t found a way to let Imatch show all the photos in filewindow. In my example I have 14 photos from map I want to move. When I click on locate in filewindow, Imatch just show 1 photo. Right?

The Map Panel shows all files you have selected in the File Window.
When you right-click a file in the Map Panel and choose locate in File Window, IMatch locates that file.

To select multiple files in the File window, use the "Select Circle" or "Select Polygon" from the Search menu.
Draw the circle or polygon around the files in question and then click "Search".
See Finding Files in an Area in the IMatch Help System.

Yes, but is it possible to left click in the map (on my 14 photos I want to move) and make these visible in the file window?

You cannot select files on the Map Panel by left-clicking them.
Left-clicking a file in the Map Panel puts the focus on that file in the File Window and scrolls it into view.
There is no "file selection" feature in the Map panel, because all files you see on the Map are selected in the File Window already.

Use the circular or polygon selection to grab all 14 files in the Map Panel.
IMatch selects them in the File window and you then can change their location quickly with the target marker.
