View a list of files that have comments?

[EliotHazel]

From my understanding ...

the only way the find "a comment on a image" is to open each image one by one is that correct?

This is very time consuming and frustrating as I would have to go trough many many images , is there a better solution?

cheers

This idea has been closed as it has reached the end of the Share an Idea process.

Thank you for your suggestion, and if you have another idea to share, please do!

Its been clear for a while dropbox implement things that their user base doesnt want and just flat out refuse to provide basic functions for everyday tasks. If anyone has a better system let me know.

Thank you for your idea, while we can’t take every idea forward we do regularly re-review and will update you if anything changes!

It's weird all the stuff you offer that I wouldn't use in a million years, but this simple thing isn't available. 

[aquillin]

yup. here's another vote for this feature.

or quit marketing things to creative teams, as it's like who ever is calling the shots on functionality has never worked in a real environment.

Dear god this is necessary

Yes same as others , we need to be able to easily view by comment or star status . 

(and then be able to select & move to a new folder for the next part of workflow)

Also being able to export out all the text files of the notifications is needed. 

Then I can have a list of all comments and file number to work from. 

This is key for Photographers and designers that use DB to share images and designs with clients .. and a lot us use it this way. 

Can we not at least have a button in notifications that will allow us to export all notifications (or date sensitive) as one text file? Surely that will be easy . 

- having to manually go through each image to see if there are comments takes hours and hours (and on an iPad it doesn't show comments at first view status)

I have a couple of folders of 2000 images which a client has selected and commented (for retouching) on over 500 images. 

Thanks

What great ideas Steve!  *deletes comment*

Have you tried Dropbox Family?

Bump. Would like to see this implemented ASAP. Organizing large volumes of media for video production in a group is tedious without some way to easily reference/print/view the comments of all files, or selected files, in a folder.

It is incredibly time-consuming to open each individual file to view comments. Plus, comments do not rapidly load on both desktop and mobile. It is also frustrating that on mobile, the comment section closes each time you switch files. This impedes my ability to work quickly. Comments should be viewable as a group. It would help if there could be an option to view a page that has a column of thumbnails with the comments next to the thumbnails, so you can still see the preview of the file.

Bump.

Funny that Dropbox sent me a survey after I recently shared a folder of pics with a client and ran into this exact issue.

It makes me wonder if anyone in the community has found a better cloud storage alternative that has this type of feature? Because if so, my loyalty to the Dropbox product-line is waning, esp with the additional lack of functionality in the Hellosign integration. If anyone has suggestions, I'm all ears.

Dropbox, fix your products!
