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.
Hi
A number of us have started using dropbox paper at work. We want to save documents that we create in paper to an existing Team folder but I can't see how to do this. Any ideas anyone?
I think Paper is great and has a lot of potential. The two things I still need the most which the product does not have are:
1. Ability to save notes anywhere on your Dropbox file hierarchy.
2. Mobile app or mobile integration.
If I can create or edit a note in my phone while knowing it will be saved in an appropriate project file on my Dropbox account I think my entire digital life and work can be stored and done in Dropbox.
A note about point 1: I find it incredible that note-taking applications like Evernote and OneNote group their documents together under their own hierarchies, labels, tags etc - in essence a "group by file type" and not the more convenient "group by content". Imagine if all your Excel files had to live in Excel.
Allowing for tags and the ability to filter/search with tags would be nice too.
Congrats on the great work so far.
+1 on Paper docs as part of the Dropbox folders... but, I have no idea how that would work without an offline native editor. I suspect that's why the HackPad/Dropbox team haven't done it. ;-)
