I don't want to keep seeing a side-preview of my files, when clicking the ellipsis
Hello. Often, I just need to download a file (PDF, Word doc) from the list in a folder's view. I click the three dot expansion menu, and it pulls up the preview pane. This is clunky, slow, unexpected behavior. If I want to preview, I'll click the filename itself, or the larger context box its in. When I just need to download something I don't want to wait 4-5 seconds for it to load.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, Rich. I want files to open in quickview when I click the filename or container, but not when I click the three dot hotdog expansion menu.
Now that you mention it, clicking a file's selection box on the left pulls up a preview, too (unless you click two or more). Dropbox should nix that too.
