Bug Description

In files frame of Nautilus you can
- create folder
- create document
- paste
- increase zoom
- decrease zoom
- normal zoom
- propriety
(excuse the wrong items, but I use Italian version).
but only if the frame is not completely populated (there are a few files).
If it is completely populated (or if you act on a file) the right-click-menu is contextual on file you clicked on, so you can not "paste", "create ...", etc..
This actions are only permitted trough the Nautilus menu (File and Modify).

(Thanks for the opportunity)

I second this bug.
If you're using list view in Nautilus with a tree, it is absolutely impossible to organize folder creation because a new folder is not being created where you're pointing at in the tree, but in the root folder you're standing in.

That means you have to create all the folders in the root and then move them to where you want them afterwards.

+1, this is *HUGE*. I used the File->Create Folder option, and then had to spend a couple minutes to figure out where the folder went.

Confirmed Michael's comment.
File > Create Folder creates an 'untitled folder' in the current directory, the view pans to show the folder, which is selected and in rename-mode. At least, it should pan to show the folder, but it doesn't always do this.

I can reproduce this error by opening my home folder, expanding Music, Pictures, Photos or Ubuntu One and pressing File > Create Folder. For some reason known only to gods and madmen, most other folders I expand don't reproduce this :/

It is not clear whether File > Create Folder will create a new folder in the current directory or the expanded directory - which might be taking up the entire view. (Bug #61786)

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention.
As Pedro Villavicencio has pointed out , this is a feature request. , not a papercut.
Unfortunately a paper cut should be a small usability issue that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. I'm afraid this bug can't be addressed as part of this project.

A paper cut is a minor usability annoyance that an average user would encounter on his/her first day of using a new installation of Ubuntu 9.10.

For further info about papercuts criteria , pls read > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut

Don't worry though, This bug has been marked as "invalid" ONLY in the papercuts project.

For resolution of the bug, kindly follow Pedro's suggestions.

Das wurde erst vor paar Monaten gemacht (mitte/Anfang Oktober zirka), kann mich noch an die Geruste und die Fahrzeuge der Baufirmen erinnern. Ist mir aber erst heute aufgefallen, dass die Fenster (und sogar die Balkone) zugemauert sind.
Mir fallt nicht ein warum man das mache sollte, einer von euch ne Idee?

This is very useful as well: Say to yourself "This is not a priority for me right now." And when you don't *feel* like going to the gym say it out loud. "Working out is not a priority for me." Is it true? No? "It's not a priority for me to continue my good habits." If that does not ring true, get off your butt and go to the gym!

I'm with all the other ladies who didn't start on January 1 though.

Hey friend,
Binary options trading is a relative newcomer as far as market trading options are concerned.
They were first approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in 2008 and they are now openly traded online in what have become known as binary option trading platforms or brokers.

If you want short-term work that fits around your study, you can try out private English tutoring. I did that while I was living in Tokyo. You can choose what sort of lessons you want to do, how much you charge, who you teach etc. Just make sure you stick to teaching in cafes and other public areas, and don't give away personal information to your students in order to stay safe.
