Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Photo file structure

I am awaiting the release of 10.10.3 and the new Photo application. I have been researching and believe that the new Photo will allow the user to manage photos in a normal file structure, folder and sub-folders. Can anyone confirm that for me? TIA

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1), 8Gb/512Gb

By "normal" do you mean accessible via the Finder? If so, iPhoto has that capability now, and yes, Photos has it too. But I would strongly caution against using it as, like iPhoto, it's more work for exactly no benefit and the app lacks basic tools for managing it. This

was written about iPhoto, but the situation is substantially the same with Photos.
