Missing folders in directory?

When I created the new project, gradle create a single drawable folder instead of segmented ones for mdpi, hdpi, etc. Also, it didn't produce a value-v21 folder. I am using Android Studio 1.1.0 and the gradle file shows that compile API is 22, target API is 22 and minSDK is 19.

Hello,

By default these directories are not created when a project is created. If you have need of them, you can always create them yourself either manually with your system's file utilities or from within Android Studio(easiest from the Project view instead of Android view). They also will not show up in Android view. If you have resources in those folders, they will show up as a single resource "folder" that you can then view the individual files. Though everything will work as you are expecting if you are in Project view. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask and I will try to help.
