Need help with Photos and Referenced files
I'm a newbie and want to use Photos with referenced external files but the process does not seen straightforward. I did uncheck to box in Preferences that would allow files to be copied into the Photos library. Rather than risk the thousands of photos and videos accumulated since 2001, I decided to use just one fine to test it.
I "imported" one file. Then tried it again to make sure I couldn't import duplicates, but Photos allowed a duplicate to be imported. I tried it again and it allowed a second duplicate. And there is no evidence, such as a badge that denotes that is a referenced file.
Am I not doing it right? Is there no way to look at an image and confirm that it's referenced?
