Environment

Resolution

After a project is created and the repository baselined into the project, anything like this must be done from Workbench. 

In Workbench, first create a package in the initial state for your project, (usually the "Development" state).  Then navigate to the data view for that state, and on the folder you want to be the "parent" of the new folder, right click and select "Create Path".

Provide the name for your new folder and the package to put it in, then click OK.

Now your new folder is visible in this initial state.

But it won't be visible in all the other states until you promote this package up through the states. 

Once the package has been promoted through all the states the new folder will be visible from all perspectives.
