New Folder is missing

[asafryk]

Type: Bug

I want to start a new project and want to open a new folder, but that function is not visible. I can only chose New File, Open File, Open folder, Open a Walkthrough and Connect to...
How can I access New Folder??

Here's one way:

1. Start with "Open Folder..."
2. When the OS dialog appears, navigate to the parent folder where you want to create the new folder.
3. Now use the OS dialog's facility to create it.
4. Select the folder you just created and OK the OS dialog.
