Hey, everybody!

I just wonder, can I create folders for assets or events using scripts?

Creating a folder:

```
var folder = studio.project.create('EventFolder');
folder.name = "Hello World";

```

Assigning a folder to an event:

```
event.folder = folder;

```

For assets you can set the path of a ManagedObject:AudioFile by calling AudioFile.setAssetPath, it will automatically create folders based on the path:

> AudioFile.setAssetPath(“folder/subfolder/test.wav”);

I have one more question. How to change a path for the folder and event in the project using script?

I figured out. Thanks 🙂

```
var folder = studio.project.create('EventFolder');
var subfolder = studio.project.create('EventFolder');

folder.name = "Folder";
subfolder.name = "Sub Folder";

subfolder.folder = folder;
```
