Apple Photos Slide Show Projects

For Apple Photos in macOS Mohave mid 2014 MacBook Pro how do you make a slide show project from an album where you have sorted the pictures in the order you wish where the slide show will be in the same order i.e. to avoid having to resort the pictures to get the same order.

Photos does not always respect the sort order in the album. Currently this should work:

  • Select the sorted album in the sidebar, but do not select the photos inside the album, just the album.
  • Ctrl-click or right-click the album in the sidebar, then use the "Create" command from the contextual menu, that will be shown after ctrl-clicking or right-clicking.



And you must not use the command "File > Create", it is working differently form the Create in the contextual menu. even dragging photos to the slideshow may mix up the order.
