Smaller Header of Dropbox on the Website

Hi, I work with a lot of videos and photos. It is beneficial to be able to see the thumbnails when I am searching for the right file. However, the Dropbox header takes up the top third of the screen. Even at the standard "Grid" size, at best I can only see 1.5 lines of thumbnails at a time. It seems like there's a lot of white space in the header that could be condensed.


Cheers,

Eli

      I will note that this is a desktop specific issue.   On the mobile app the header scrolls away and hides as I scroll through the folder.

       

      For the website on desktop, is there a solution or setting that can be changed to hide the header containing the folder name, path, tags, users with access while I am scrolling the the folder?  The header is static/frozen and occupies too much screen real estate which is interfering with my navigation of the folder.

        Hey StapledonArts, thanks for your reply here.

         

        At the moment, there's no way to hide or disable this header.

         

        I will make sure, however, that your comments are passed along to our team.
