You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
On iPad, adjust column widths, or allow line wrap, to show full filenames
Is it possible to prevent long filenames being shortened from the end? My filenames need to have the whole name displayed, rather than having the end characters chopped off. These "end" characters identify the various versions of the same file. Many thanks, JohnF
Back button to be added when viewing pdfs.
Can a "back" button be adder to the PDF viewer on iPad? We use Dropbox to host reference manuals, some are more than 1000 pages. It would be great if after clicking a link to a part of the document there was a back button which returned you to the previous page.
iOS app: Delete photos option after uploaded
It would be great if we had the option to remove photos from our iPhone once it has successfully uploaded via the upload to folder feature. I don’t use that automatic photos uploading so it is quite frustrating to have to upload then find the same photos to delete in the iOS photo app.
Mobile app (iOS): Having the option to open unsupported file types as .txt
As there are more file extensions than Dropbox recognizes, I have previously suggested that Dropbox examines the file content for ascii. As no action has been taken on Dropbox side to resolve, I now suggest a simple pop-up window that allows the user to select preview type. As a user/programmer ( in many languages) , I know what my files are, as I have put them in my Dropbox. I am best suited to know how to preview. This would allow me to review/edit files on mobile devices without temporarily renaming to a .txt file extension.
