How do you use folders in Eventbox?
I cannot figure out what the functionality of folders in Eventbox is supposed to be. I can't seem to drag anything into the folder, and can't seem to create anything inside the folder. Am I missing something, or is there really no point to these folders?
I’m really confused.

Inappropriate?Create a folder in the Twitter Container (right-cick > New Folder). Then create or drag in existing Searches, Profile Peeks or Smart folders.

Inappropriate?As FredZ explained, you can create folders inside Twitter (all plugins will follow to support this) or outside the context of a service. When it's outside the context of a service, you use folders as organizers of Smart Folders (which actually provide the content). For Twitter, you can drag & drop searches, profile peeks, folders and smart folders. -
Inappropriate?Thanks! This could use an interface tweek. Even if I have the Twitter service selected and then use the "+" button, it adds a generic folder that seems to be useless. -
Inappropriate?Don't use the + button. Use control-click or right-click instead.

Inappropriate?+1 on the interface tweak. I couldn't figure it out either.
I’m slightly less confused now.

Inappropriate?Ah, the trick is to have the folder in the Twitter container. Missed that.
I think folders would be a lot more useful if there were an "Add to folder" option on the context menu and the "little gear" menu (options?) for a tweet. You'd get a flyout listing your folders (presumably in their hierarchy) and pick which folder you wanted to add that user to. Seems like that would be easier - and more obvious - than picking "Profile Peek" from the gear menu, finding the peek in the list, and dragging it to the folder.
I’m coming up to speed
