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.

Dropbox StaffHey there JohnTheGeek,
Welcome to the Dropbox Community!
Initially, could you please clarify if you don't see the option to preview your files as a list instead of a gallery, which is like the grid-like template that you see as you describe?
The option should be visible on the right-hand side of your screen.
Let me know what you find!
You misunderstand. I can see them in icon view. Icon view *used* to fill the entire screen. But now only fills the left column even if there is no content to display in the much larger right column.
A month ago that was not the case, and I could close the right column to expand the left column to full screen.
This has nothing to do with icon vs list view in the left column.

Ah, I see! Thanks for clarifying that for me, JohnTheGeek.
When you preview a file, are you able to click on the X mark that should be on the top left corner of the preview?
Let me know of any updates!
- That X disappeared in a recent update. That’s my whole frustration.
I feell ya, same here. Wasted space. Often I need to see the whole filename. Now many of the filenames are truncated. Would be important they bring it back.
