Description Unknown 2009-03-27 01:23:14 UTC 
Version:           1.2.1 (using 4.2.1 (KDE 4.2.1), Kubuntu packages)
Compiler:          cc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.28-11-generic

Hi,
After creating a new folder, it is not selected by default. Since dolphin automatically re-arranges the folder views after creating a new one, the user gets confused as to whether the folder is created or not, and where it has gone !!
So, this looks like an user-interface issue with the file manager.

Could you please make the newly created folder automatically selected, so that the user can clearly identify where it is located after getting created ?

Thanks a lot...

As noted in the forums (http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=223&t=102688), this is reproducible in Dolphin 2.0.
