You might see that the Dropbox Community team have been busy working on some major updates to the Community itself! So, here is some info on what’s changed, what’s staying the same and what you can expect from the Dropbox Community overall.
Re-posting barrondunn's previous idea after it was locked.
It makes sense for a multiple user system to have the option to automatically lock a file when they open it, and it automatically unlocks once they save and close. The locking feature as is is fine, but people will never remember to unlock the file when they're done, especially if you're in and out of many files throughout the day.
A lesser but viable alternative would be to have the Dropbox badge for all file types, not just Office.
I agree. This would be very useful to avoid conflicts.
Excellent suggestion, which I strongly support.
I hope it will be implement soon. This a big lack in a team working-oriented system.
