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.

260 TopicsQuestion about ideas thread duration policy.
Hello, This is a question for Dropbox staff. I've noticed that recent ideas threads are being closed by Dropbox staff after exactly one month, citing "inactivity" as the reason. I'm curious to understand the rationale behind this practice. Given that ideas currently face visibility challenges on the platform, a one-month window may not provide sufficient time for community engagement. Additionally, I'm wondering about the necessity of closing these threads at all, since they don't appear to consume additional system resources. Thanks, Andrew (DBoxTips)61Views0likes1CommentTrouble creating Google Docs, sheets etc. after linking Dropbox and Google.
Hi! I have successfully linked my google account with my dropbox account. But when i try to create a document or sheet it has the following error: Could not create destination folder. Before this error occurred I created a google sheet, but 30 min. later I couldn't create either new docs or sheets. In the settings the account is successfully linked to google account. My browser is Google chrome and it is logged in to the same google account as the one I have connected to Why is that and how can i solve the problem?Solved37Views0likes5CommentsWe can't create a new folder

Suddenly I'm having trouble loading Dropbox PDFs (either saved as from JPEGs on Dropbox or created with Dropbox scanner) into Microsoft Word. "New" issues: PDF exceeds "maximal page size" - How can I change the default page size on Dropbox PDF scanner? Text in/on the Dropbox PDF is not OCR. Even after going through the trouble of changing the PDF size, the text is not OCR (not readable when loading or inserting in to Microsoft Word document and/or cannot be selected, copied, and pasted). All help welcome! Thank you!32Views0likes1CommentI would like to be able to brighten a document in the editing section.
I uploaded paperwork and sent a link out to my viewer but later realized that I had forgotten to brighten my documents. It would be so easy if I was able to brighten them real quick in the editing section without deleting the file, brightening them elsewhere, uploading a new file, to send my viewer another link. Something like a few quick color filters like what’s in the IOS photos editing app would work just fine. It would be a nice feature.13Views0likes1Comment
