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.
Increase max-width of Dropbox Paper content area at LG/XL breakpoints
Hello, I have some feedback to pass along to your design & dev teams regarding the web experience using Dropbox Paper on a Chrome brower (Version 127.0.6533.73). Is it possible to increase the max-width of the content area in LG & XL breakpoints? Currently, when reading/writing/editing in Paper in a 1280px wide viewport, the content area is limited to only 745px wide – 58% of the available viewport. The left & right margins feel excessively large and the "dead space" creates difficulties when trying to view multiple windows on a single device screen. Allowing the content area to stretch at least 75% of the viewport width would keep more of the content in view without scrolling, would better accommodate users on large devices, and still include negative space for your eye to rest. Please see the attached screenshots for a visual representation; and please reach out with any questions or for more details. Thanks! - Jillian Feedback Id: c447735758523f55706a6758bf30dfa3023114c6
Please remove the scroll bar on the mobile app
Could you please remove the scroll bar? It gets in the way. When I open Dropbox to download a file I just uploaded, I have to wait a few seconds for the scroll bar to disappear. It's a mobile app for touchscreens. Why do we need a scroll bar, anyway? The entire screen is a scroll bar.
File manager view on the Dropbox site
I would much prefer to have the files and folders presented in a file manager tree view rather than having half of the screen taken up with preview thumbnails of recent files. The current layout is frustrating to work with, especially when working collaboratively as it encourages poor file management practices. I want my Dropbox interface to be clear and functional, not fun.
