FIXED IN AS 2.2.1
After update Android Studio to the 2.2 I've got this problem. It's hard to use such format with a small 13-inch display.
In Project view and Android view I get folders name as full packages name but I want to see just names of the directories:
I tried to search for this problem, but I only find "Compact empty middle packages" which impact only for a top level folder.
"Flatten packages" option creates tons of the directories, for every package making everything even worse:
One more screenshot:
In the Package/ Project or Androidview etc, Go to the gear icon on the right side and uncheck Flatten Packages and Compact Empty Middle Packages. This should show you the break down by directory instead of flattening it.
Note: This has now been fixed in Android Studio 2.2.1
AOSP - Issue Tracker:
Project structure view is showing full package names for sub packages when data binding is enabled.

Check this configuration if Flatten Packages is not your desired solution:
Hope it will help

After refactoring the name of a base package, Android Studio now displays the full package name for all subpackages of the refactored package in the Project / Android treeview. The directory names and package declarations in the Java files are correct, so this seems to be related to an .idea file.
This is what I'm seeing (The blurred package name is the same in all instances):
Any suggestions? I've noticed a couple of times that the issue temporarily corrects itself while Android Studio performs a background process.
You'll want to disable flat hierarchy in Project pane.
1) Click Show Options menu button.
2) Uncheck Flatten Packages.
3) Optional: Uncheck Compact Empty Middle Package
If I have a directory which only (at present!) contains another directory Android Studio decides, for some strange reason, to not expand the directories in the usual manor - ie click folder1 to reveal folder2, then click folder2 to show its contents - but instead put them together in a single entry (folder1.folder2). This makes the directory structure incredibly difficult and inconsistent to deal with when trying to manipulate the contents. Right now I'm having to revert to doing so in windows explorer!
Is the any way to change this peculiar behavior.
Click the settings icon in the Project view and uncheck Compact Empty Middle Packages.
Note: this screenshot is from IntelliJ Ultimate, but it should look the same (or similar) in Android Studio.
I got it to work similarly by going to the Project View settings and then unchecking the Flatten Packages option. This then got my folder configuration to the desired subfolder configuration format as described above. This may be new compared to the answer of 5 years ago. In my case, only unchecking the Compact Empty Middle option was not enough.
Use combination of Ctrl+Shift+A inside Android studio, it's a shortcut for "Find Action..." and type in "package", there is "Compact Middle Packages", turn that off.
I have a trouble to add a package under one of the flavor folder in Android Studio: after I right click on the java folder and I could not see the 'Package' or 'Java Classes' options there!
I did exactly the same for another flavor and it was fine.. Now I am stuck here, without knowing if it is a bug in AS or I did anything there. Anyone help me please!
(I googled it and did not solve it with what I have found so far)
=======EDIT========
I close the project and create a brand new empty project, now even in the main folder I cannot find the 'Java Classes' or 'Package' when I right click on the java folder I added.
However, if I just create the folders of the package under java with a class there, and do a build, it will finally recognize that and make java blue color and then I am able to see the menus if I right click the blue java folder.
So it sounds like some bug in AS.
It might just be the build flavor you are currently selected correctly to enable that flavor.
If we have two build flavor let's say free and pro. If pro is selected is current build flavor. The flavor free will not be shown as java package in blue color as you mentioned, it will be shown as directory structure. Hence change the build variant and make it workable.
Not sure if you faced the same issue, but sharing it for reference of others who might face this issue as i faced now.
Package option is available only for selected flavor. switch to desired flavor and IDE will refer that source directory and will convert it to package and directories from other flavors will be listed as normal directories tree structure.
I found this Solution.
File > Project Structure > Select the lib folder > Click on Sources > Apply and Okay
Now you can see the new package option by right clicking the lib folder, the new package option will be shown.
Step1
Step2
Step3
Control click (mac), or right click the /java directory and select Mark Directory As -> Source Root. You should then be able to right click the /java directory and select -> New -> Package. Your java directory will also appear blue.
Solution. File- Project Structure- Modules- Right click on lib - Select Sources.
then the option "Package" will appear on your list.
I am unable to see the folders that are physically existing, this is the case.
But in actual fact I have other folders as welll
So what can I do?
Above your the file directory view in Android Studio is a drop down which currently is most likely set to Android. Change it to Project and you should be able to see all your files.
I tried the all the approaches mentioned above but can't fix rather than fix it by a hardcore approach -
Step 1. Close your Android studio.
Step 2. Delete .gradle and .idea folder from your project directory.
Step 3. Open your project and you will see the files again.
go to View menu then click tool window then after click on project
view->toolwindow->project
it worked for me
for me doing the following works:
from menu go to: View--->tool windows ---> Project
then click the little gears icon (settings) you will see an option to change the empty middle packages. it looks like this:
disable "Hide Empty Middle Packages" under the Project View settings dropdown and then it should make everything show up.
If anyone ever does what I did maybe this will help:
Android Studio does not like it when module names begin with a number. I was learning from some tutorials and named the first module "1-name" and the next one "2-name". Setup was fine and it ran, but only the "Gradle" Scripts entry would show in the navigation window in "Android" mode.
The structure project window does not show all the options and I can not add libraries or modules.
Check the image:
And this is how it should look with all the options:
I try to fix that reinstalling androidstudio, but it didn't work.
I'm using Android Studio 2.9 and i already have working ABS, but i can't make work HoloEverywhere
Is there any solution for this problem?
Beforehand, thanks
Do Right Mouse Click on visible package, then select 'Open Module Settings' - it will give you ability to add Module.
I added a screenshot to show exacly what I mean.
It's a workaround but it give you ability to add module to project
