11 TopicsNeed more increments for playback speed in audio files
Would like to see an additional playback speed increment for playing audio files. I proof audiobooks and sometimes the speed at 1.0 is too slow, yet the next increment of 1.25 is too fast for this purpose. 1.10 would be most helpful!531Views5likes8CommentsHide the photo
1-Hide Selected Files in a Shared Folder. We need an option to hide specific photos or files so they do not appear in the drop box gallery view. 2-Preview Photos Inside ZIP Files When sharing a ZIP file, Dropbox requires users to open each file individually. It would be invaluable if photos inside a ZIP could be displayed directly on the main page, just like a normal shared folder. 3-Show a Thumbnail Under Shared Links (Optional) When sharing a link, please allow an optional preview image (for example, the first photo in the folder) to appear under the link, similar to pCloud. Thank you so much149Views3likes1Comment2-page / Book view for PDF's
It would really be great to be able to view PDF's in "Two page view" like on Acrobat. It makes it much easier for clients to review documents intended to be read/viewed in spread format WHILE KEEPING THE ACCURATE PAGE NUMBERS. Yes, as a designer, I can export a document in spread view, but then the page numbers will be off (i.e. the spread of pages 4 and 5 are combined and appear as a single page 3) and can make communicating about the document complicated. To see what functionality I am talking about, please open a multi page document in Acrobat and go to the View --> Page Display options as shown in my included screen shot.159Views3likes1CommentImproved MP3 Player: Play Audio While Viewing Sheet Music or Documents
Hi there, (for iPad/iOS and general) It would be great if the MP3 player could be displayed side-by-side (for example, in a side panel), so that MP3 files can play in a built-in player while a PDF or other document is open at the same time within the Dropbox app. This would be extremely helpful for musicians and similar use cases. Also, please ensure that basic MP3 playback options are available (some may already exist), such as play once, shuffle, and loop. For my workflow, “play once” would be the most important feature. Thanks a lot! (using iOs, iPad App)164Views2likes2CommentsAllow PDFs to be viewed as full page, without scrolling
When I share design portfolio PDFs with prospective clients, the viewing experience is very poor: they have to continuous-scroll through the document, rather than experience full pages, one at a time. The visual effect is spoiled, and the presentations loose their clarity and flow. This especially impacts comparative or Before-After image sequences. I would like them to view the PDF - ideally zoomed to a full page - and every time they touch or click, the whole of the next page appears. I have tried to modify the PDF file (through Acrobat) to achieve this and have search for information on a fix, but it doesn't currently seem possible in a View-Only (i.e. not download) scenario.132Views2likes1CommentView shared photos as a gallery
When I share a Dropbox link to a folder with photographs, the web link is not optimized for photo viewing on any platform (phone or desktop). The thumbnails are too small and compressed. And on a phone's web browser, users can swipe through individual photos, but it requires two separate taps, thereby quickly becoming cumbersome. I am suggesting the idea to have Dropbox photo folders appear as a dynamic, tiled gallery, much like on a dedicated iOS or Android app. Google Drive's photo gallery is a great example of how to implement such a feature on Dropbox.294Views2likes4Comments
