Q: How can I search for live photos in Mac OS X Photos?
How can I search for Live Photos (synced from my iPhone SE) in my iMac's Photos program? I can see there's a little icon in the info tab - it's a vaguely snowflake symbol that appears beside JPEG, and above the f-stop and exposure data - but I want to also be able to search for it. Ideally, I could make a smart album with all the Live Photos. Is that possible?
For the moment I'm adding a tag, but that will quickly become less and less useful.
The best source on this issue that I've found so far is this article ...

... but it's from around a year ago, and I hope things have improved since then.
Thanks!
iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11), Late 2009
