Add collapse/expand nested lists in Dropbox Paper documents

Add collapse/expand nested lists in Dropbox Paper documents

Dropbox Paper allow to create nested lists in Paper documents, but when we create long nested tree - it's hard to navigate between it. 

Will be good to have feature for collapse and expand nested elements of lists in Dropbox Paper editor. Good example of collapse/expand interface you can see in Diigo Outliners: https://www.diigo.com/outliner/start

Hello there @Murz - I hope this finds you well!

I am writing to thank you for this feedback! We are always looking for ways to improve Paper, so I’ll make sure your comments about collapsing and expanding nested items within lists are passed along to our development team.

If there's anything else I can do, please let me know. Thanks!

I'd like to echo the request for nested collapsable lists. workflowy.com does it perfectly.

Third!

If we had collapsible lists, I'd remove Workflowy from my scheduling/management workflow; I could handle everything inside of Paper. I use to use Notion before Workflowy, but it's too cluttered and complex. Workflowy is too sparse (no inline text formatting, no links between lists). Paper is that happy medium, just need collapsible lists.

Please consider!

collapsible code block would be great!

Either implementing expanding/nested lists, to-do boxes and code blocks or going the notion.so route and having sub pages would be fantastic.

Essential! I use other apps alongside paper because of this omission. I add my support.

It looks like this was added behind the scenes for bulleted lists!! Not sure about to-do lists?

This will really clean up some documents

Yep, seems to work on anything that uses a H1 or H2 heading!  Though, it would be nice to see a few more heading sizes and formats so we can use this 'collapse' functionality without being forced to use an actual bold/larger heading.

Hmm..

I'm not seeing it on either bulleted lists or H1/H2 heading items. Wonder if it was only rolled out to select users.

I'm still very much interested in the feature for bulleted lists and to-do items.
