I upgrade recently Iphoto whit Photo.
I need to export many picture. I usually add a name when I use Iphoto. But I didn't find the same option in Photo. So whit about 100 exported picture only the IMG-9999 camera name is boring.
Tanks for any good help!

what exactly did you mean by adding a name?

Hi!
Instead to keep the camera id i want to add a significant name like Front door or Helene at the beach. It's easy whit Iphoto but whit Photos I can't find how to do that.
Tanks
You want to add a title below the thumbnail, right? First set the Title to be viewed in this menu:
Next click on the photo you want to name and click on Untitled below the thumbnail:
and type in the title/name
If you want to automatically have the file name entered as the title use one of the Applescript posted in Photos for Mac User Tips
I understand what you write dear Odl Toad. But it's dont fit me need.
I write a OO text and I add picture in it. I resize the original picture from 1.2mo to 20ko by export them on the desk top. If I don't do that the text file will became to heavy. I may export about 100 picture on my desk top but I use about 20 to 30 pictures in my text file. Those picture are not in order when I take it. As an exemple pictures mays start at IMG-9001 and goes up to IMG-9400. I choose the one who fit my need, export, downsize them and I add a name in one operation whit Iphoto. Exemple I want Helene at the market one picture are in the middle and one at the end in the data bank. Whit a name instead of a number thing are easier when I assemble my document.
My last text was really longer to write because I dont got an easy way to identify the picture I need. Whit photo I export picture, open it whit aperture and change title. But that need more time, twice the time Iphoto require. It"s too much time. I want an easy way to do it like Iphoto offer. If it's possible.
Just try Iphoto whit the export menu you will see what I mean. I try to add picture from Iphoto menu but sorry it's dont work.
Hope those precision help you to help me.

There's a couple of ways you can do what you want:
1 - using one of the title renaming script that are available in Photos for Mac User Tips. This gives you a lot of variation in the Title. Then export the photos via File ➙ Export XXX Photos menu option with the settings set like this:
The JPEG quality level sets the file size. It may or may not be enough for what you want but you can experiment on a couple of photos.
The Use Title will name the new files as you'd like. The Size refers to the size of the image in pixels and if you send a smaller image size that will help reduce the file size a bit. Again experiment with a couple of photos.
Using the same JPEG and Size settings you've determined are good for you situation either of these two options can be used to rename the files.
2 - put the photos in an album that's titled like you'd like to have the file name be and use this option:
3 - or this option:
Another option is to export the photos to a folder on the Desktop with the names you'd like and resize them with a 3rd party app like Resize!.
You can fine tune the file size as well as the image size with it.
Hi Old Toad!
Tanks a lot for every thing! The best solution is the option 2. Option 1 don't gave any access to put a name. And the last option work but it take to much time too
You make my day!
Tanks again I appreciate what you do for me but also for all others!
