Description Alexander Ioffe 2006-04-26 13:17:26 UTC 
Create New Application project.
Select any of "Source Files", "Header Files", "Resourse Files" in project tree view.
Invoke New File Wizard dialog, by any method (via Popup menu, via Main menu or
via  Toolbar).
Choose any file type, click next.
The selected (in project tree view) package should be typed in 'package' field
by default.

It is actually not a bug. Source Files and Header Files are logical folders and
the Folder in the Name and Location panel in the New File Wizard refers to a
physical folder where the file will be created. If you right click Source Files
and create a new file, it will physically be created in the folder you specify
in the Folder field but appear in the Source Files logical folder. They are two
independent things.

Comment 5 Alexey Vladykin 2010-05-11 18:23:05 UTC 
There is no "Package" field in our file wizards. Packages are not applicable to C/C++ code.
