Folders in Navigation window

I have run into this problem also. I just created a folder using windows called "Old Drawings" and used windows to move the drawings that I don't need, but don't want to delete to the new folder. It didn't cause me any problems but make sure none of the drawings you are moving are loaded into the model or open. I placed the new folder in the project folder.

No, you can't add folders to the navigation window.

I did call tech support to ask them, and yes, Keith is correct! Dennis, I will look into what you are suggesting. Perhaps when I do a "save as" I can direct the old scheme to the new folder?
I don't know how you can do it under SP but using Windows tools outside of SP I've done it several times.

Dennis,
Edward is referring to the addition of a tab or named title in the Navigation window, not a folder in the project.
I understand that. And there doesn't seem to be a way to do what he was asking for. What I was suggesting was a work around to what I think his actual goal is. That would be to move but not lose the old floor plans to a storage location to clean up his navigation panel. If you look at the screenshot that he pasted his drawing list covers the page so that he has to use the slider to access something. Having that many old, and unused, drawings still in the list would drive me crazy.
If I misinterpreted his ultimate goal, well then that's the risk you take when you assume to know the other person's thoughts.
