This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit VPC-I-102 Ability to create a container as a dormant folder that contains subfolders only .
It would be beneficial to have a type of container that you can't actually open. The point of this would to stop people uploading or attempting to view documents in the wrong place.
For example, I may have a container with a package name, with sub-containers for drawings, specifications, schedules etc. Nothing would be uploaded into the [package name] container, as everything is stored in the sub-containers. Currently people can still upload into the [package name] container by accident, or people can navigate there by accident and think that there are no documents.
If there was a type of container that is only used as a heading for sub containers - so when you click on it, it doesn't open anything, but just opens the list of sub-containers - it could prevent many issues.

Good idea, I avoid this problem by putting the drawings directly into the first folder. That also saves a click & pause.
