Create/Rename Directories

Creating or renaming a directory uses a common Rename/Create Directory dialog. The mode is automatically selected by placing input focus in either the Rename or Create fields .

To rename a directory, select the desired directory in the Directory Window and select Rename from the Directory menu or press Ctrl+N. The Rename Directory dialog will appear. Edit the name as desired and press the Rename pushbutton. You may click on any other directory while the dialog is displayed to facilitate renaming other directories.

Creating a Directory

A directory is created by selecting the desired parent directory and entering the name of the directory to be created in the Create field of the Rename/Create Directory dialog. The dialog is accessed by selecting the Create (or Rename) option from the Directory menu.

Push the Create button to create the directory. The name is validated for the type of file system (support for long names). Creation of multi-level directories is supported.
