Change order of starred files by dragging and dropping

The starred function is great for home page and fast access to most frequently needed files and folders.  However it woudl be even better if you could edit the order in which the items appear, by dragging etc.   At present the only way o order in a given fashion is to write everything down you need and add them in reverse order to the blank list.  Or am I missing something here?  Thanks.

This idea is going to need a bit more support.

Hi all,

Currently it seems like the list of starred folders sorts with the most recently added at the top. I recently upvoted an idea to be able to manually sort the list of starred folders. I'd really like to be able to manually drag and order them in any order I wished. Hopefully the developers can do this without too much difficulty.

Cheers

Hi,

Any update on this issue?

It would be such an improvement to be able to have the starred items organized in some way (other than the current one which is by most recently added).

Alphabetically at minimum but user-defined drag/drop would be the ultimate.

Thanks.

Yes!!! I have 12 documents starred and I have been trying to figure out how to reorder them so the documents I use the most are at the top of the list. I guess I haven't been able to figure it out because the feature does not exist. Please add the ability to edit order of starred docs on the Home page.

Yes! I do like a regular order of folders for easy access, but I also want to be able to group folders based on temporary activity, like tax season, or refinancing, or photo collations. Click and drag to new position ability would be great. Maybe further a reset to standard order option would be further fabulous!

Any update on what would be a very useful feature?

Thank you for your idea, while we can’t take every idea forward we do regularly re-review and will update you if anything changes!

It seems daft that we can 'star' things in a folder but then we cannot filter or order starred items within the Dropbox interface?!

Furthermore, when I go to the 'starred' items on the web interface, there doesn't seem to be a way to display these as large thumbnails or to reorder them. Or even see their thumbnails!

Maybe I am missing something

Surely these features are needed to make this useful — look at Adobe Bridge for a great way to filter / highlight lots of files...
