      This problem first occurred about a year ago, IIRC. The first geolocation image and terrain imports fine, but the subsequent "Add imagery" fails to bring in the image.
      I'll post to Trimble, as well.

        A solution to this may be obvious to someone who does this on a regular basis, but could you elaborate on exactly what is happening? Why is that grey plane skewed wrt the ground image?

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

          Thanks for your response.
          I use Geolocation regularly; it's an integral part of my workflow. This is a very recent development, (last week or so). It may be location specific.

          I have found a workaround in this case, which is to reduce the zoom (zoom out) a step or two.

          EDIT - the odd intersection is not something I did - the blank plane seems to be at a small angle, or an artifact, as it changes with rotation - disappearing or getting worse.

            It's the old Style Menu issue (revisited after upgrade). Easily, if not obviously, fixed and for the record;
            Window -> Styles -> Edit [tab]-> Match Photo sliders (may need to scroll down) -> Foreground Photo (tick box on).
            For some reason, I'm not wired to see Geolocations terrain display issues as Style problems!
