Get rid of preview pane in iPad app!
New iOS version today says I can now get rid of the Preview pane but HOW? Waited so long for this and now I can't work out how to do it!!

Hi Ian,
The feature is still rolling out. You'll see it soon as a X button in the top left of the preview pane.

I'm using Dropbox on iPad and my file names are truncated. Up until very recently it was possible to close the preview pane and have the file list take up the majority of the width. There was even a thread about it here: https://www.dropboxforum.com/t5/Installs-integrations/Ipad-and-Iphone-viewing-of-long-file-names/m-p/273286#M63970
As of this evening that "x" is gone, and I'm back to staring at gibberish in my file list. Please restore that close functionality.

Thank you for participating in our Community rhockman.
We understand how much of a problem this is. I moved your feedback to this thread to add up to it.
I am confident our team will be able to resolve this with a future version of the app.
We greatly appreciate your patience. Thank you!
