Is it possible for me to change settings to get raw=1 as default link?
When I make a link to Dropbox content I got dl=0 as default. Is it possible for me to change settings to get raw=1 as default link?

No, there's no option for that.

Ok. Thanks for fast reply.

Rich is correct, though this is an interesting feature idea. You may consider posting this in the community forums idea board to get a sense of how common this need would be. I am a Product Manager for our Sharing capabilities and this would certainly seem to be a niche power user capability. Thanks for your question!

Jason, Thanks for your response and support on this feature request!
I have added this as a Dropbox Idea, because a setting to allow me to set a raw=1 default for shared links would be a great help in my use cases. Currently I need to do it manually for every link, both to make the content larger for recipients with smaller screens and to allow downloads.
If anyone reading this wants to chime in under Dropbox Ideas with your use cases, so Dropbox product teams can see this as a priority, that would be great!
