Create or move folders

Within each main attribute folder, you can create any number of sub-folders at any level.

Drag and drop one folder at a time to any other level of the hierarchy.

Note: You can’t have two child folders of the same name inside the same parent folder.

Merge two folders of the same name

Drag one of the folders into the parent of the other one. The contents of the two subfolders will be merged in a single folder.
