New folder dialog does not handle name validation correctly

[SusanRatiLane]

Describe the bug

The new folder wizard uses the project name validation methods and displays the related error messages. In addition to the error messages referencing "project" instead of "folder," they also don't correctly describe the wizard behavior. The folder wizard does not automatically remove or replace invalid characters, e.g. replacing " " with "_", and the error message says it will.

Affects

• Designer
• Blocks editor
• Projects Explorer
• Companion
• Compiled apps
• Buildserver
• Debugging
• Other... (please describe)

Expected behavior

Folder name validation should handle automatically handle invalid characters the same way project name validation does, and the strings referencing projects should be fixed.

Steps to reproduce

Click the new folder button on the project list and try some names.

Hi @SusanRatiLane,

I need your help with an issue I encountered.

Currently, when entering an invalid project name with spaces between letters, no alert message is triggered. However, for folder names, an alert does appear. The folder wizard does not replace spaces with underscores ("_"), unlike expected behaviour.

can you please verify this approach that I am on the right track or not?
Remove the alert for invalid folder names.
Instead of prompting the user to enter a valid folder name, automatically replace spaces with underscores if the user clicks "OK" with an invalid folder name, similar to the project configuration.
Let me know your thoughts. Thanks!
