I'm working on a school project right now and I have a lot of different floors that are serving little purpose, but that are still necessary.  I was wondering if there is a way to create subfolders in the project folder that I could drop all of these floors into?  It would help my organization out a lot, especially when I start making all of my 3D views and renders.

Thanks in advance.

You could create a new project parameter called something like "view classification" as a text field and apply it to views in the project.

Then create a new browser organization that groups on this new parameter.

Each view then can have the parameter filled in as you see fit and the views will organize themselves in the project browser.

Each existing and new view will need to have this parameter filled in or they will collect under the ??? in the project browser.

Tip: Develop a view organization schedule to deal with this new parameter.  Also explore the use of view templates to include your new parameter.
