Okay, I guess I asked the wrong question, so I will try to rephrase it:
The ”Create document” option in the right click menu, mentioned in my
first post in this thread, is usually empty except for ”Empty file”.
How do I populate it with other kinds of documents?
I know lots of ways to create new documents, my question was only
about the right click menu.
