Enable Emoji in file names.
I use emoji’s to help me find things quicker. I would like to add an emoji from the apple keyboard to the file folder name but when I click on rename and add the emoji it says “invalid folder name...the folder name contains invalid characters”. Here is an example I wish to change “Vehicles and DOT” folder to say “🚗Vehicle and DOT”
Introducing note boxes: A quick way to add important notes to your Paper docs
Hi Paper pals 👋 I just wanted to pop in to let you know about a new shortcut we released in Dropbox Paper today. On a new line, type /note and press Enter. You’ll get a colored note box that you can use to add important notes in your doc. Here’s how it looks in action: You can use note boxes to create summaries at the top of your doc, insert examples into your documentation, or add important tips for your readers. You can even create different colored boxes by typing /note red, /note green, and so on. We hope you’ll give it a try, and if you have any feedback—good or bad, please feel free to post here anytime. Thanks! John (from the Paper Design team)
Making a spooky Halloween playlist on Dropbox Paper
It’s getting really close to one of my absolute favourite times of year, Halloween As always, I’ll be building an eerie playlist to listen to while I decorate my house with spooky stuff to entertain the trick or treaters who call at my door. Using Paper to make a playlist This year, I decided to ask some friends for help curating my playlist, to make this process a little easier I created a Halloween paper doc and shared it with everyone and asked them to add their favourite Halloween songs. Dropbox Paper has lots of features to help make your planning easier! Adding Spotify links to a Paper doc I’ll be using Spotify to make my playlist and it’s super easy for people to add a link to Spotify directly to a Paper document. Here’s how to do it Click the Insert media button on the menu bar at the bottom of the page Scroll down the left-hand side of the pop up window until you see the Spotify button Copy and paste the Spotify link and press enter Click the Add to doc button I know that not all of my friends use Spotify, but anyone else who wants to add to the doc can do so by adding a YouTube link, by using the same method, with the only difference being you choose the YouTube option on the pop up window after you click the Insert media button. Our top spooky selections So, to help get you in the mood for Spooky season 👻 here’s some of the tracks that have made their way onto this year’s Playlist so far. Tell us what you think My playlist needs your help, please let me know what you think of it so far and add links to any tracks you’d like to see added.
