Creating a folder under an existing folder You can apply the same method as for the creation of a folder under My Drive, except that you select the existing folder, instead of selecting My Drive.
There is another method though, using a contextual menu attached to the folder name:
- Mouse your folder name (Test here) in the left pane: Test is highlighted in grey, and a small triangle shows up, pointed downward;
- Click on the small triangle, and a popup contextual menu will show up:
Observe that focus has switched from wataproof folder ( wataproof now in black) to Test folder; select (and click on) New folder... entry from the Test folder popup contextual menu. The contextual menu will disappear, and leave room to a popup window for naming your folder
- Type your new folder name (Test Sub here) in the text area;
- Click on the Create button to validate the creation of your Test Sub folder under Test folder.
You can now find your new Test Sub folder and further browse:
| You can now see new folder (Test Sub here) in the contents area relative to the Test selected folder (browsing area). | | By clicking on the small triangle pointing to Test folder, in the browser area, you can expand Test and display Test Sub underneath. |
