Mac OS X Finder - Creating New Folder with Right-Click in List View

Not that it gets you exactly what you want, but besides the 4 items listed by Xetius, you can also add a little "create a new folder" icon to the top of your finder window (picture of a folder with a plus sign in the upper right corner). You would use "View/Customize Tool Bar ..." to add such an icon.

Appear to not be.

You can, as you mention, do one of the following:

• Press Shift+Cmd+N
• Change Finder View
• File->New Folder
• New Folder from the Action button on the Toolbar (The gear button)

But you cannot seem to right click (Option-click) anywhere to bring up the context menu with the New Folder option.

Cmd + right click will do it seems. Mine is Yosemite.
