Viewing spreadsheets on iOS. Can't zoom out.
With the recent update, I can’t zoom out making it difficult to view excel spreadsheets on iOS. Is there something I can do to zoom out and view easier?
- If you don't mind signing up for the TestFlight build, please give 334.1 (or later) a try. This version does not artificially zoom the spreadsheet previews at all. You can find instructions on installing the beta here: https://help.dropbox.com/account-settings/beta-program
This version is otherwise scheduled to be released with this change next week if you cannot try out the beta.

Dropbox EngineerCan you clarify which direction you're looking to zoom? I just want to make sure I'm understanding. Is your goal to be able to see everything smaller so more fits on the screen?
For context: in version 332 which recently came out, we've started showing Excel files (e.g. .xls) and certain text formats (e.g. .csv) differently, which is what you're seeing. Ideally this is better than how things were before (needing to tap 'Open' and view separately), but this might be an area that we did not understand the use case around.
