How can captions be displayed in Photo slideshow. This used to work in iPhoto, and I assumed Apple would add it to the new Photo.

You have manually to add a title slide to each photo in the slideshow by clicking the "+" button at the and of the film strip. You cannot add the captions automatically. It is a lot of work in Photos.


To add a Title slide:

  • Select a photo in the film strip.
  • Click ➕ at the end of the film strip, then click "Add Text".
  • Now enter the caption into the Title slide. You can open the Info panel for your photo with ⌘I and copy and paste the title from the Info panel to the text field in the title slide.
