Search Existing Templates when creating a new Box Note from a Template
As a Box user, when I am creating a new Box Note from a template, I want to be able to search existing templates (by template name), so that I can easily re-use existing templates created by others in my organization instead of scrolling through the template list.

Box Notes - Ability to collapse/expand sections
Sometimes collaborative Box Notes can get VERY long. It would be great to have a little carat next to each level of heading that would allow you to compress/fold down the sections you're not working on.

Ability to Pin Box note to the top of a box folder
I would like to be able to pin a box note to the top of the folder list within a box folder. (I set up folders for project teams and I generate a box note for the document and information management guidelines for the team. It would be good if it was at the top of the list (or pinned to the side).

Drag to re-order lists and tables in Box Notes
I use lists in Box Notes quite frequently for lists of tasks or priorities. After entering the list items, I often wish to reorder the items. If you could add a simple drag to re-order list items behavior, lists would be a far more useful capability within notes.
This same drag to re-order functionality would also be very useful in tables within Box Notes
The best implementation that I have seen is in the OSX notes app, where a faint grabber icon appears next to the row and column of a table that you are editing. You can re-order rows…

adding anchor link capability to Box Notes
Hello. When creating a Table of Contents in Box Notes, it would be helpful to have an anchor links button/function for long pages, so readers don't have to scroll to find each section. Thanks!

Allow us to change sharing settings on multiple "image" files at once!
It's a HUGE pain in Box. You put 20 or 30 images into a Box note, and you want to share that note with someone at your company, but outside the team that has access to that folder. You must MANUALLY click every single image, open sharing settings, change to "View to anyone at my company".
If Box could just make it so that if we change the sharing settings on the folder containing the images, all the images would have the same sharing settings, OR allow a multiselect of images to change sharing settings for all images at once,…

Insert date and time fields in Box Notes
My office would like to use Box notes to log certain informal client interactions. We would like to create a customized Box note template for this, and we need it to include automatic current date and time field in the note header (i.e. individual note creation date and time) -- similar to the generic stock template provided by Box. However, there is currently no way to insert automatic creation date and time fields in a custom Box note template header. This should be an easy and useful enhancement.”

Shared Link Comments
We share our creative to our clients using shareable links. It would be great if non-box users had the ability to make comments on the files shared. We are switching over from dropbox and that was a feature that we use with our clients on a very regular basis. It gives us the ability to have all of their feedback in one place.
Please let me know if this is doable. It's top priority for our team :)
Thank you!

Ability to copy and paste formatted text from other text editors (i.e. Word, BBEdit, etc.) into Box Notes better
Our users experience a lot of trouble when trying to copy and paste formatted text from other text editors (Word, BBEdit, etc.) no matter the format they try to paste it in. They typically always lose numbering, bulleting, and more.

Making Box Notes specific to Folders
I use Box Notes as a running shared agenda with clients, however, it's difficult to switch between client's notes since they only allow for one default location to save notes. I try to save them directly in the folder the client is working out of.
Could there be multiple save locations for notes for a specific folder? Or a way to assign it once created?

change font style
It would be great if we could have more text customization options. Especially changing fonts. Font style can alter your workflow, it's really important for me, and i think that for others as well.

transferring annotations
Hi. I'm a professor and I created a BoxNote with a text I want my students to annotate collaboratively. I added some annotations, comments, and hyperlinks to get them started. Then I copied this BoxNote to another folder for a second section of the class. The hyperlinks transferred, but the annotations and comments did not. It would be cool if BoxNote supported the total transfer of material in a text, not just the hyperlinks. AND I can't copy and paste all those annotations so now I have to type it all up from scratch. That's a drag. Please design a…

Using number formatting breaks if you don't want an inserted space or image to be numbered
When I try to format a document using numbering, the sequence breaks if you don't continue the format. In Word, you can restart at 1 or continue numbering if you have a new section of numbers. This forces us to use bullets instead. Sometimes, we'd actually like to use the option of numbering when we are numbering steps.
