That's the same that is described upstream in
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/issues/694 and they closed it as
fixed with that comment
"The new folder is now in the pathbar "buttons", as part of the current
location. A bit hidden withouth proper "welcome screen" thought...
Anyway, closing as this is available there."
Doing the same here

Title:
Cannot create folders in list mode if it is longer than the screen
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
This is really just annoying. It does not really impair anything, a
very easy workaround is to temporarily switch to grid view and right-
click on an empty spot between the grid cells. Then you can make a new
file/folder.
If the title didn't make sense, here's a more detailed explaination:
When viewing a lengthy folder in Nautilus, such as your Documents folder or
your home directory, and you are in list view, the list of files in the folders
is likely longer than your screen, so you need to scroll. Not a problem, right?
Definitely not, but there's one thing: you can't create new files or folders
when this is true. Because normally, when the list is not longer than the
screen can display at once, there's (a lot of) empty space for you to
right-click and create new things. But when there's not, you can't do that,
because there's no empty space.
My suggested fix would to add a button to create new files or folders
on the menu when you right click a file/folder, and not just empty
space.
I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. My nautilus version is
"1:3.10.1-0ubuntu9.7", which seems to be the latest, or at least for
my OS version.
