The new Dropbox Paper UI doesn't allow me to adjust the navigation column

So I use Dropbox paper EXTENSIVELY and the new upgrade is not working my way. I get that the Paper is now a part of the file system. I can browse the folder using a file exporer and double clicking...

I might add, that I have used Dropbox Paper since the very early days.

Hi Jsurland, thanks for messaging the Community.

 

This is the current method used for navigating your Dropbox Paper documents within their folders, and it isn't possible to increase the column width. 

 

We haven't been able to duplicate the part where the scrollbar moves to the center when you click anywhere. Which browser are you using, and is this the same on other browsers? 

 

This will help me to assist further!

    Hi Jay, 

    Thanks for your quick reply. I am using Microsoft Edge on Windows 11.  When I load a document it reloads the tree and reposition itself. My tree is 3-4 levels deep and has slightly long names.

    Resizing the sidebar, is that on the roadmap?

      Currently, we don't have any information on future updates or changes to the Dropbox site, or what is on the roadmap.

       

      We do appreciate your feedback on the website interface, and we take all comments into consideration when improving the Dropbox site and services.

        Hi Jay,

        Thanks for your reply.

        I cannot work with it as it is - I will find an alternative and migrate. A shame after the many years of happiness with a perfectly clean and simple, yet powerful tool.
