Remove or filter out particular Box Notes from Inbox without deleting
The Box Notes Inbox contains a long list of items that are shared with me but that I may never access again. I can't remove my collaborations because they are stored within enterprise-owned folders that are shared with the entire company at a high level (e.g. all "Projects" are shared with the entire company in case we need to reference them, but I am not part of the project team for most of them). We would like a way to remove or filter certain Box Notes from the Inbox so it is less cluttered.

Tighter integration with Box Notes and Outlook
Box Notes should better integrate with Outlook similar to how OneNote does. From an Outlook event on your calendar, users can easily create a OneNote meeting note file, as well as assign tasks and include emails/contacts on the OneNote file as well.

Ability to lock sections of a Box Note
Currently, if a user has edit permissions on a Box Note, they can edit any part of it. We would like the ability to "lock" certain blocks of text and table headers in a note so that other users do not modify or delete these accidentally.
8 votesWe’ll keep this in mind! However, this is not currently planned.

Allow change page size, change orientation, more fonts or font colors in Box Note
Adding more option to customize Box Note (font, format, orientation etc.) for better UX
6 votesWe intend Box Notes to be for casual documents. Meeting notes, project plans, etc.
It’s not intended for flyers, fancy collateral, perfectly formatted PDFs. For those, we still recommend a program like Microsoft Word.
We do not plan to add these types of things to Box Notes.

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.

Box Note Unlimited Page Width
Right now, the box notes page width is fixed. This is particularly frustrating when creating tables in a box note that needs more than a few columns.
It would be amazing to have the width of the box notes to be unlimited to allow for tables to have many columns
3 votesHi there – Although we understand the need for unlimited page width, we do not plan to extend our existing full width experience. We will reconsider this experience once we have additional feedback and use cases.
