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?
- 2 years agoIf 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.

Hi Jtaffera, let's jump right into this!
Can you clarify the Dropbox version that you're using on your mobile, along with the OS version installed there?
When did you first notice this behavior, and does it happen to all files, or only Excel Spreadsheets?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

Drop Box Version 332.2
iOS 16.5
This problem first came about yesterday. I use drop box to store excel spreadsheets used for viewing truck dispatch details. The Sheet is fairly large and it seems that the new update will not allow me to zoom out to see the whole page.
It seems to only be effecting excel spreadsheets.
Thank you!
