 +===== Move View =====
 +
 +Move an existing View to a new location
 +
 +Hover over the ID of the View on top, click 'move' and choose another location in one of the Views or Reference View. For image Views, it's possible to choose a specific image by clicking on the footprint of the photo position itself.
 +
 +To move all views at once, hold Shift in move mode and choose a new location. While holding Shift, 'move' in the View Action Fly-out will change to 'move all' to indicate this.

 +Anyway, the action consists of 2 consecutive steps
 +  - Get Candidates
 +  - Sort Photos
 +
 +==== Get Candidates ====
 +
 +Find relevant photos around the requested Focus Coordinate. \\
 +Any photo becomes a candidate if 
 +  * Focus Coordinate is nearby the Photo Coordinate (Search Radius) 
 +  * Focus Coordinate is in the field of View of the Photo.
 +
 +Searching for candidates is done by incrementally increasing the search radius and ends when
 +  * 10 or more candidates are found, or
 +  * the maximum search radius is reached.
 +
 +==== Sort Photos ====
 +
 +Sort candidates by relevance, to get the best image and order alternative images. \\
 +The best image has the smallest value for the selected option
 +
 +Options:
 +  * By Direction offset \\ Offset between the Candidate Direction (Candidate to Focus Coordinate) and Request Direction (3D View Position to Focus Coordinate).
 +  * By Pixel offset \\ Pixel offset of the Focus Coordinate projected on the Candidate Image to the Candidate Image Center.
 +  * By Spatial distance \\ Spatial distance of the Focus Coordinate to the Candidate Coordinate.
