Drag and drop in Photos 1.0 - Books/Projects

Also moving a page forward or backwards was a drag and drop feature, now you seem need to delete the page and recreate it on the destination spot.

Click on the page number under the thumbnail of the page and drag it to the location desired:

As for moving a photo from one frame on a page to another there doesn't seem to be that capability. One must Control (right) - click on it to remove it and then drag it from the Unused Photos tray at the bottom into the desired frame.

Tell Apple what missing features you'd like restored in Photos via https://www.apple.com/feedback/photos.html.

I think I found it!

In order to drag and move picture in a book in the new photo, you need to click on the photo........wait......and when the photo moves, you can now switch it with other photos.

Previously you could drag and drop. Now you have to click, WAIT and then drag and drop.

Hope this helps,

You're right.

With a trackpad I have to click, keep holding down, and the photo will start to move nearly immediately. It is not such a long wait. But a noticeable delay. And it is working in the "All Pages" view. I can drag a photo from page page 1 to page 20, not just exchange page 1 with page 20.

I believe Photos creates the thumbnail images on the fly. I'll open an existing album for the first time since opening the library and I'll get this

for anywhere from 1 to 4 seconds before the thumbnails appear.
