Saving Paper docs to existing Dropbox folder structure/file-system.

Hi

A number of us have started using dropbox paper at work. We want to save documents that we create in paper to an existing Team folder but I can't see how to do this. Any ideas anyone?

    Would be great if Paper could be created and stored directly alongside of your regular Dropbox files/folders.

     

    For example:

    Dropbox / Projects / SomeAwesomeProject /

    - Bunch of project files ( photos, html, js, css, etc )

    - Paper wiki for SomeAwesomeProject

     

    Instead of having to do: ( I know it's a subdomain )

    Dropbox / Paper / SomeAwesomeProject /

    - Paper wiki for SomeAwesomeProject

     

    Dropbox / Projects / SomeAwesomeProject /

    - Bunch of project files ( photos, html, js, css, etc )

    Wondering - any update on this feature request? Frankly, it takes a lot of value out of DropBox to not have collaborative docs integrated with all the other files I store on Dropbox.

    hopefully paper 2020 coming to us soon! is there a way to check ETA or anything like that with it?

    definitely a very much to be expected feature, I assumed this was possible, until I realised this is a different hierarchy

    registered and posted just to keep track of this feature

    cheers

    The team is currently working on this as part of the Paper 2020 release.

    I'll keep you all posted with any updates in the meantime!

    I would love to be able to save Paper files anywhere in Dropbox instead of only on the Paper site. This is the way that Google Docs works.

    When working in a project folder on my desktop it is inconvenient to open a browser, go to the Paper URL and search for a document that I would have naturally saved directly in my project folder.
