Creating new folders

To further organize the topics in your project, you can create custom folders in the Project Manager. These folders are displayed as subfolders in the following folders:

From each of these folders, the Project Manager filters the file names that are displayed so you only view the ones that are applicable to the folder type. For example, subfolders in HTML Files (Topics) displays HTML topic files (.HTM), Images displays .JPG and .GIF files, and so forth. You can create subfolders within your custom folders to further organize your files.

To create a new folder:

  1. Click the Project tab.

  2. Click the folder from which you want to create a subfolder.

  3. Right-click the folder and select New Folder. The new folder is displayed with a temporary name.

  4. Type a name for the folder, and then press ENTER. The new folder is added to your project.

 

Tips:

  • You can move files into folders by dragging and dropping them on top of the folder icon. In the Project Manager, open the file to move, and then drag and drop it on top of the new folder. For more information, see Moving files in and out of folders.

  • By default, you see your custom folders in all of the Project Manager folders identified above, regardless of whether they contain any files. For information about changing folder views, see Viewing empty folders.

  • You can drag and drop topics from the Topics List into a folder in the Project Manager. From the Topics List, select the topics to move, and then drag and drop it on top of the new folder.
