Is there any way to sort "Faces" alphabetically in the new Photos App for OSX?
In the new Photos app, you can still use face detection (or manual face tagging) to label faces, so you can easily pull up all pictures with a certain person in them, etc.
Faces now lives in the "Albums" tab, where there's essentially a "faces" folder. But when you open it...
...there seem to be two categories:
- A few "featured" faces on top, which are larger (I'm not sure if these are "most recent" or "most photos"
- All the other (smaller) faces.
How can I sort the full list of (smaller) faces in some way that lets me find a specific one. Like, alphabetically, say?
I have ~300 tagged faces, so browsing by face is simply not efficient when I'm looking for a specific person.
There's now a sort by name feature! In Photos version 1.2, you can go to the Faces view and then do View > Sort > Keep Sorted By Name. Ridiculously, this is apparently turned off by default if you upgraded from a previous version.
Anyway, this will make my use of Photos way way easier. (I have 1400+ faces.)
