Dropbox Paper
54 TopicsCan I merge cells in a row in a table in PAPER? And additional formatting questions!!!
Hi all, I am just starting to use PAPER (and loving it). I'm looking for some formatting tips that I can't find the answers for online. For example: I'd like to merge cells in a row in a table, is there a way to do that? Can I customize the font sizes within a document? Can I italicize and underline text? OK, many thanks, DEVILLESSolved18KViews13likes19CommentsDropbox Paper no longer functions in dark mode
Dark Mode suddenly (this week) no longer works (Mac OS Desktop App across 2 machines, mac ventura and mac monterey). Left sidebar with list is dark. Writing / Note area is white. ("on", "off", "auto" settings have no effect ... it's always white bg). Blocks which used to show tools are now just black bars in the app - I can click them but the tool icons are no longer visible. I've written Dropbox support and received a ticket number and response which was entirely irrelevant. (they told me to "use a different browser" ... except that I'm not using a browser, I'm using the desktop app.) Any help appreciated.782Views2likes1CommentMaking Notes in Paper and password-protecting them
Taking notes and password protect some of them. I'm looking for an app that I can make notes and password protect some of them. I'm trying to migrate from an app called "StyleNote Pro" With which I can take notes about things like "Health", " Movies", "Restaurants" and "Sign-On Information" and "Museums". I can list "Museums" and then have "sub-notes with info about each museum. I want to be able to password protect the "Sign-On Information" but not info about "Museums". I found "Paper" and thought that might do it. But, after uploading lots of notes I discovered that I can't edit them on a mobile device. Does anyone know if Dropbox has something that would work or of any other app that would work?1.7KViews2likes1CommentMoving rows and columns in tables
Now it is impossible tomove rows or columns in a table. The shortcut ctrl+shift+up/down does not work on tables for moving rows(it works on usual paragraphs). Actually a more standard shortcut is shift+alt+up/down (not sure why you have chosen ctrl instead of alt) -- I think it is better because ctrl is usually used for selection. The most important feature is moving rows. At least by using keyboard shortcut: ctrl+shift+up/down (or alt). Second priority is moving columns.At least by using keyboard shortcut: ctrl+shift+left/right (or alt). Alternatively using drag&drop (I personally like keyboard shortcuts).Solved9.8KViews2likes4CommentsDropbox Paper - "No Dropbox account found"
Paper just suddenly stopped working. It wouldn't sync and repeatedly failed syncing. I quit paper and relaunched it. Now I get "No Dropbox account found - Dropbox Paper uses your Dropbox desktop app to sign you in. To use Dropbox Paper, please sign in to your Dropbox account with the Dropbox desktop app and then hit “Retry”." Dropbox is running (currently syncing files). "Retry" just loops back to this same message after a few seconds. Please help.Solved1.1KViews1like4Comments
