Need to see if your shared folder is taking up space on your dropbox 👨💻? Find out how to check here.
Version stacking process should be simplified.
Currently, you have to select the file > go to the drop down menu > select "new version" > choose the directory > select the new file > click "upload."
This is very time consuming when working with 100's of images with multiple versions.
Ideally, I would drag and drop all the revised files into the web browser > wait for the upload to finish > sort by name > click and drag the new version over top of the old version.
Frame.io does a great job of this exact process. Could you please replicate it!

The current version stacking process does feel overly manual when you’re managing a large batch of files. Having to go through several clicks just to upload each new version definitely slows down the workflow, especially with hundreds of images.
Your drag-and-drop idea sounds much more intuitive — being able to drop all the updated files into the browser, let them upload, then simply drag the new versions over the old ones to stack automatically would save a ton of time. Frame.io system is a great example of how smooth that can feel in practice.
Replicating something similar here would really streamline version management and make the whole experience faster and more creative-friendly.

On Replay, it's a whole process to stack a new version. When working with a lot of files, it's very time consuming.
Just a thought to help streamline the process.

HI bsmx251, thanks for the info.
Just for clarification, are you trying to add files from your computer onto the web browser, or dragging and dropping from the Dropbox site itself?
Could you provide more information on what you're trying to achieve?
This will help me to assist further!
