2. If you selected to create a Zend Tool based Controller:

1. Enter a name for the Controller.
   The default name for the created controller will be <Controller Name>Controller.php (e.g. MyNewController)
   The default location for the file will be in the application's default 'controllers' folder.

2. Select the required containing Zend Framework project from the Project Name drop-down list.

If you selected to create a Template-based Controller:

1. Ensure the required containing source folder is correct.
   It is recommended to create all Zend Controllers in the project's controllers folder.

2. Enter the Controller name in the File Name field.

3. Click Next to view and edit the template on which the new Controller will be created.

3. Click Finish.

A new Zend Controller file will be created with the relevant template.

The new file will be created in the project's 'controllers' folders and displayed in the MVC Outline view.
