how do we get folders in the project browser?
I saw a file that has the sheets divided into folders but can't seem to figure out how they did it..

You will have to create a project parameter and assign it to views. With that parameter available for views, you can organize your browser the way you want. Let me know if you need more information on how to do that.

An old post but it still does the job. Credit again to Wes.

Same approach just select the Sheet heading instead of the Views heading.
Any parameters you create need to be applied to the Drawing Sheets category

hi. is there a way to create sub-sets? for instance if you have an existing folder for floor plans, can you create a sub folder for enlarged floor plans?
any help is appreciated!

Only if you have a parameter that will allow you to sort the browser on. Good, consistent naming conventions can help keep things organized but won't allow the creation of new groupings by 'folder'
