I did Save As… on a previous model that was already geolocated. I’ve always been able to go to Add Location and then remove the location by clicking the trash can icon near the top left. But it’s not working this time. ---

What happens if you go to Model Info\>Geo-Location and hit Clear Location? ![Screenshot - 4_22_2025 , 5_16_13 PM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/d/5/d599ea05700b656000e5a65f536275a8a138b1d7.png) ---

That fixed the problem. Thanks! On a related note, I have had a small issue with the Import Context and Import Site Context windows (after selecting the address) opening up northeast of the property instead of over the GPS pin. It’s only a minor problem. And I can create a different topic if that would be best. ---

@donneyclark The context window is centered around your sketchup model rather than around the location pin. If you have “show model” disabled however, this can look a bit odd, as the framing is not obvious, especially for a large model. @pablo_prats what do you think? ---

There is also this topic, and I asked the add location team to look at the issue: > [@Cannot add Location to model “model is already georeferenced”](https://forums.sketchup.com/t/cannot-add-location-to-model-model-is-already-georeferenced/324360/4): > > Go to Window - Model Info - Geo-location and click on Clear Location [[Fixing Clear Location in SketchUp 2025] ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aKNbQX9k24)@colin - Delete from inside Add Location has a problem. ---

Happened with both 2024 and 2025 versions. I tried upgrading first to fix the problem. ---

Hi @donneyc, thank you for the heads up regarding the issue on the Import site context window. Answering you and @daniel_pidcock we considered both options but we though it is more friendly to centre the ketchup model rather than the location pin. Especially considering that most customers geolocate their files already having a model on them. Also for “out of scale” models, there’s a dedicated window that states: Your model is significantly larger than the recommended scale. This may affect performance and visualization. So with that we feel it’s a good workaround for customers to notice not have problems finding the pin. If you want to post a video about your experience, that would be welcome to reconsider that issue if necessary. Thanks both! ---
