You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Please please please give us the ability to do simple calculations in Paper tables.
Then we can stop using google docs spreadsheets.

I'd also like to be able to reference a cell on another table, like using the = and then clicking on a cell on another table so that it keeps the same value.
Feels like we are talking to a wall anyways since this was posted 5 years ago, and has been "under review" for 2 years.
I understand that you can't take every idea forward, but this is one of the most voted and popular, so I can't help but wonder what is being taken forward. 😑

Thank you for your idea, while we can't take every idea forward we do regularly re-review and will update you if anything changes!

Not to be a naysayer, as I would love some type of support on this front, but I do want to mention that I do really value the current Markdown extension support, and it would be very unfortunate to lose, for either importing or exporting docs.

It's been 4 years now. Is dropbox keep investing in paper or it's just something to onboard more people temporarily.
Paper is great but mobile supports is behind. Cannot even add rows and columns in mobile.
I would like to see paper to replace - GDocs, AppleNotes, Evernote, and also storage - GDrive, iCloudDrive, Photos etc.
Storage and photos are covered. But docs - only solution is paper and it's lagging by miles.
Help me onboard to dropbox. Make paper better and support all features like Quip. Support on all platforms in same way.
It's great product but need

Hey,
I would love to see some kind of advanced tables in Dropbox paper. With the option to have some excel like features. We do lot of project estimations in Paper and we love to use it. Sometimes it would be nice if there would be an Excel like feature to add basic matematical functions to tables like calculating. I would love to avoid Excel :)
Another feature that would be helpful:
When it comes to the Timeline function (which is amazing) it would be great to see the title of bar sticky on the left side, so if the viewport changes and the begining of the bar is hidden, the title is still visible.
I love the dark mode of paper and it would be awesome, if the theme could be modified. A dark grey or black would look much nicer with most of the layouts our documents have.
Thank you guys, you are doing awesome work!
Ooops, just understood that there's a dedicated Paper channel. Feel free to move it.

Hey glennthomas thanks to so many votes, it is now 'under review', which is really good news, and I for one am hopeful.

Safe to assume this feature isn't coming any time soon?

Hi Walter / Dropbox,
Is this available yet? I have been using the tables up a storm (left google drive behind for this) and really need the calculations.
Thanks in advance
