Work with folders
We use folders to group sets of item types into logical groupings.Folders are used to group sets of item types into logical groupings. This is useful when you have large numbers of items in the library and want to distinguish between different groups of items within each item type view.
For example, we could create the following component folders to distinguish between different types of image components:
- Photos
- Logos
- Diagrams
- Design images
We can create folders for the following item types:
- authoring templates
- presentation templates
- components
The folders created are displayed in the authoring portlet within each item type view.
- Only a single item type can be stored per folder. For example, if you create a folder under the Presentation Template view, only presentation templates can be saved in that folder.
- We can create folders under existing folders allowing you to create a hierarchical structure of folders.
- You add items to folders selecting a folder as a location when you first create an item, or by moving or copying an item into an existing folder.
