    What, exactly, are you referring to? Viewing what, and where? On your computer, a mobile device, the Dropbox website? Please be specific so we know how best to help you.

      thank you for getting back to me

       

      on computer

       

      the images are small and the only way to advance is to click in the upper portion of the page

       

      i used to be able to expand the pages and fill the screen and scroll instead of having a large white rectangle surrounding the image and having to enlarge each individual image going back and forth for each one

      the image against the white background decreases sensitivity

       

      hope i explained this adequately -- advanced age limits my understanding of how these machines work

        Hi nicolaitan666 , I'm a product manager here at Dropbox. Thanks for sharing this feedback!

         

        Correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like you want to be able to enlarge the size of file thumbnails (previews) when you're browsing through multiple of  them while on the Dropbox website (particularly on grid view)? 

        If that's the case, we are currently working on a way to allow you to have more control over the size of those files and folders so that you can enlarge or shrink them to your need.
