Hello, I’m having a script issue. I can create an ‘Event’ using `studio.project.create('Event')`, but I cannot create a ‘Folder’ using `studio.project.create('Folder')`. The function seems to return null and fails. I have already tried running as administrator, unchecking read-only on the project folder, and moving the project to C:. The problem still persists. Could this be a bug?

Ahh.. it was my mistake…  
to create folder I needed to use `studio.project.create(‘EventFolder’)` instead `studio.project.create(‘Folder’)`
