Can I remove the "your activity" files?
It seem impossible to imagine but apparently Dropbox has decided that recent activity/files in recent activity are now permanently viewable until replaced by more recent activity. Really? I hope I'm wrong. Dropbox started out as uniquely user friendly and easy to use. I've watched that disappear over the years. It's becoming every bit the arrogant, controlling, short sighted and customer unfriendly type of site that it once stood out from. Again, if anyone has different information, please share. I'm truly hoping I'm wrong.How to expand left sidebar width on the website?
How can I expand the left sidebar width. I have many levels of files and I can not see the names of folders that I want to move files into. As you can see below, all I can see is the first letter of the folder "A" and there are several of them. I want to be able to expand the left sidebar so I can see the names of those folders and not just the first letter. I was able to do it before, but not now for some reason. Thanks!
Fix actions overlay covering up comments in RTL languages
When commenting on a shared file, the comments are being overlayed by the action buttons on hover, so when hovering to resolve a comment you cant see if its the right comment. this is only an issue on RTL languages where the text start from the right and the overlay is on the right too. The Comment: Covered by the action buttons:Please remove the scroll bar on the mobile app
Could you please remove the scroll bar? It gets in the way. When I open Dropbox to download a file I just uploaded, I have to wait a few seconds for the scroll bar to disappear. It's a mobile app for touchscreens. Why do we need a scroll bar, anyway? The entire screen is a scroll bar.
I seem to have duplicate Dropbox folders in Explorer
I have duplicate dropbox folders with only one installation showing in control panel. Both pointing to my USERS folder but one above THIS PC and one beneath the USERS folder. What can I do to get rid of the duplicate? AND THIS ONE BENEATH THE USERS FOLDER (sorry for the ALL CAPS)
The new Dropbox Paper UI doesn't allow me to adjust the navigation column
So I use Dropbox paper EXTENSIVELY and the new upgrade is not working my way. I get that the Paper is now a part of the file system. I can browse the folder using a file exporer and double clicking will open the website. That way does not work for me. If I go to paper.dropbox.com my documents are almost (99,9% gone) gone and all of my folder structure is completely gone. There is one single document. If I click on that I see the document and a sidebar that contains my folders (along with the rest of dropbox - which is annoying, but apparantly the new way). What is REALLY annoying is that everytime I click on a document, the sidebare reposition content, and I can't see the real location without using the scroll bars. And I can't resize the the sidebar. This view is completely useless. I can't click through document because of this reloading and repositioning. And I am not mentioning the fact that it is also slow, because of the way it loads the documents and loads folder structures lazy. Is my Paper profile broken? Or is this the way it is supposed to work? If that is the way it is supposed to work, I am looking for a new platform.
