There's no "View on www.dropbox.com" option in the context menu, when the Dropbox app is paused.
I noticed that the options available when right clicking on a file in Explorer change when sync is paused. In particular it is no longer possible to "View on dropbox.com". This would be useful to me because I sometimes pause sync to keep my laptop running reasonably when my work colleagues update a load of files at once but I would still like to check the latest version of a file (or access one that has been made offline only) I can still open dropbox.com myself and navigate to the file but it is time consuming. Is there a way to keep the "View on dropbox.com" menu available?
Allow a href (local) and H1/H2 tags in forum posting?
Subject: Forum Editor – Frustrating HTML Restrictions Hello, me again! I tried posting an idea for the markup/screenshot feature, but ran into multiple restrictions in the forum editor. I kept getting this annoying error: Content not published (links to forum entries, should be allowed!) Your post contains invalid HTML. Remove the following invalid tags before publishing: a, a (class), a (data-lia-auto-title), a (data-lia-auto-title-active) And then again: Content not published Your post contains invalid HTML. Remove the following invalid tags before publishing: span (data-testid) And most frustrating of all: Content not published Your post contains invalid HTML. Remove the following invalid tags before publishing: h1 This makes it really hard to write a structured post. Could you please either allow standard HTML tags (like headers (h1/h2) and a href links), or remove the formatting/link buttons from the editor if they cause errors? Thanks, Alex
Show long-running tasks management section in Dropbox web
In Dropbox web, when moving many files or organising many files, it would be very helpful to have a section dedicated for tracking these long-running, async operations which is persistent. This is not the same as the toast progress bar. That one gets destroyed if you leave the tab, navigate to the account settings page or just come back after a while. I mean a persistent section tracking the progress of long-running operations and allowing some controls such as "abort" or track more prominently. If failures occur, they should also appear in this section, differently from the progress toast we have today which can simply be gone if you come back to the tab after a while, leaving you confused as to why some photos still weren't moved. Secondly, it's very common that moving 1000+ photos in Dropbox fails silently. We have to retry the long-running operations over and over and over until all photos are really moved. Ideally this would be better tracked in the section mentioned above with a simple way to retry, if not automatic.
I'd like the ability to preview Affinity files on the Dropbox website.
Hi Dropbox everyone! I'm moving from Adobe Creative Suite to Affinity apps (Photo, Designer and Publisher), and since I use Dropbox to seamlessly sync Affinity files between my iPad and Mac versions, it would be great to be able to view those files online too, just like in the Adobe apps. I used to use the review option a lot with clients and I really miss that with Affinity files as you can't preview them. For now, I had to go back to the old way of exporting a .jpeg/.png or .pdf and uploading it to access the review. I don't know if putting this into practice is up to you or if it depends on something from Affinity, but since they already use synchronization and it's a suite that has been growing a lot among freelancers, this feature would help a lot. Thanks!I cannot locate the "share" button on the website when hovering over a folder
I have been away from Dropbox for a while, but need to start using again to share photo folders. I have uploaded photos in folders to Dropbox, and when I want to share them, there is no "box" that appears to click on (used to be located next to the file when the file is clicked or hoovered over) that would say "share". I'm not finding this problem in researching proplem issues. Help!!
