EVALUATION Reproducible as described with 1.5.0b21. Also, the Folders list does not repaint when a new folder is created. ###@###.### 2003-09-30 Name: anR10225 Date: 10/15/2003 On "Create folder" button press an input dialog should appear where the new folder name should be input. If the input is accepted a new folder with the specified name should be created. If the specified folder couldn't be created an Error dialog should be displayed. ======================================================================
