"New Directory" will open a dialog window to name the new directory. After typing in a name and
confirming with the "OK" button, the newly created directory will appear inside the currently selected
item, except if the current item is a scene. Because a scene cannot contain a directory, a new directory
would be created at the end of the list at the same level of the tree.
Picture 3.3.3.2.3
Note: Even though the drop-down selection for "Layers" in the wizard allows a maximum of 6 Layers +
Background, once the scene has been created, Layers can be added and removed as needed.
"New Layer Group" only works when a scene is selected in the scene tree. If a
"Directory" is currently highlighted, selecting the "New Layer Group..." action from
the "Insert" menu will open a Message Box telling you to "Select a scene first!"
Click "OK" to acknowledge the error of your ways and close the box.

"New Layer" opens a dialog box for you to name the Layer. Click "OK" to close the dialog, and the new
layer will be created on top of the list of layers in the currently selected scene.
"New Layer Group" creates an empty folder on top of the list of layers in the currently selected scene.
Only layers can be placed into the folder, either by creating new layers inside it or by cut/copy/pasting
them from elsewhere.

The "Insert" drop-down menu facilitates the addition
of items to the scene tree. A newly created item will
always be placed into the highlighted item unless it
cannot be created there, in which case it will be
placed at the end of the list at the same level as the
currently selected item. The list of Edit functions
with their keyboard shortcuts are displayed to the
left in Picture 3.3.3.2.2.
"New Scene" will open a simple wizard allowing you to name the new
scene and select the number of layers it should have. When closing
the wizard with "OK," the item will be dropped into the "Scenes" tree
relative to the current cursor focus according to the abovementioned
rules (Picture 3.3.3.2.2).
The following actions can be accessed from the
"Layer" drop-down menu or directly from the listed
keyboard shortcuts for selected Layer.
