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.
Don't show this message again Print Layout View
Hi, When i open word file, a message show like " This document contains ink, shapes and images that are not legible in Mobile View. To see them, switch to Print Layout View." This message keeps appearing every time I open word, I think there should be an option "Don't show this message again".
Android App: Fullscreen mode / Presentation mode / Slideshow for viewing images
Hello, until a few years ago, there seems to have been a “fullscreen mode”, “presentation mode” or “slideshow mode” in the Android app. This allowed you to swipe through photos in a folder without leaving fullscreen mode. Current: 1. click on an image in the image overview 2. the image becomes large (in Dropbox, no other standard app linked) with header and footer (info, share button, etc..., see image below) 3. you click on the image again: Header and footer disappear 4. the current state is the desired one [Now you would expect to swipe to go to the next or previous image] 5. however, swiping only takes you back to the view mode from 2. with header and footer 6. only now does the swipe work However, I would like to present photos and videos in full-screen mode using the app. The cell phone is connected to the TV via WLAN screen share. Why has this feature been removed? MfG AndréDropbox removes the images from my Word document and throws a preview error.
I have a Word document, compressed to 13gb that contains over 100 images, when I upload the .docx into Dropbox it either removes all the images and just previews text or it gives me the error ".docx files are supported but something went wrong". Any would be appreciated.
Commercial use of audio streaming on Dropbox, are there any GDPR requirements?
Hello! I have 2 questions: I sell audiocourses in books and give the users access to the audiofile with a QR Code. After buying the book the user can scan the qr code with his phone and listen to the audios (the audio player directly starts). 1) Is it ok to use dropbox for this function? 2) Is there any data transfer happening from user side, if he access the audio? Does he needs to give permission regarding GDPR? Thank you for your kind support!
Can't use Quicklook or see thumbnail previews for online-only files.
It has been several years since I was able to quicklook a file or see its thumbnail preview. I've had multiple different macs in that timespan. Is this just how it is now or is there a setting I need to fix? Thanks, Jamie PS. I use Dropbox Teams.No individual or sharing activity details
In the past two weeks, I am now no longer to view any individual or sharing activity details. I know there is substantial activity but I no longer can view any which has made Dropbox overall much more difficult to use. I am using Mac OS Ventura 13.4.1 All I see is a screen that says "here you'll find files or folders you've recently interacted with" although there is nothing in either my individual or sharing activity. It seems others are also reporting this having happened recently.
Being redirected to old pages when clicking on links to Dropbox pages
When I click on links to take me to Dropbox pages, I am instantly redirected to an old page and can't get out. I have tried logging out and back in, back can't shake it. In other words, I am jammed up. I review films and often press info is in Dropbox folders. Can anyone help? Thanks
