Auto-populate new iPhoto Album
May 02, '06 07:30:00AM • Contributed by: Anonymous
I accidentally discovered this today: I imported about 60 photos from my camera and realized I wanted to place them into a new album I had not yet created. While the photos were still selected (as they are when you just complete an import) I clicked the "+" button and named the new album. Imagine my surprise when those selected pictures were now in that new album.
[kirkmc adds: I expected to find this in the Hints archive (and maybe Rob will find it, using his photographic memory), but did not. I'm posting it because, first, it's slick, and second, it is non-standard behavior. If it were standard (across similar applications), then it would work in iTunes as well, which it does not. Note that you can also select a few photos and then select File > New Album from Selection to do the same thing.]
