Folders in an HTML X5 project

Question

I'm trying to create some order to the 700 topics by creating
folders under HTML Files and moving topics out of the top level
folder and into the lower ones (for example Sample_Code). Well, I
decided to rename a folder (right-click rename), but RH created an
(empty) folder with the new name. It appears as a subfolder of the
Top Level Folder in the drop-down list but it is empty. The problem
is, I can't find this new folder anywhere (even as a subfolder of
anything in the Project view). I have "lost" it and wonder how I
can find it so I can move topics into it and delete the old name (I
cannot rename the old folder because RH says I already have one
with that name.

In fact, I don't see any way to delete a folder from the
project view. Any ideas?

Hi Rick!I found a companion folder in the Style Sheet folder, andtried to delete...that gave an error message that pointed me to theView | Empty Folder setting...enabling that solved my problem!I'm not using a network drive--RoboSource yes, network drive,no.

Hi yenelliYou might look at the View menu and see if "Empty Folders" isenabled. But I'm guessing you will find it is.Odds are you have the project on a network location. Creatinga folder and immediately losing it as you have reported is aclassic red flag for us here to suggest your project is on anetwork. Assuming that's the case, you should strongly considermoving the project to your local C drive before worse thingshappen.Cheers... Rick
