In Box Drive, moving folder to a different owner looks like it works (a folder dragged to new Box location in Box Drive/Finder appears in the new location), but it actually fails and an OS notification pops up only briefly. The suggested fix (if the user notices the problem and can find the message about it) is also not ideal -- Box wants you to manually move the folder back yourself, but if you don't see this message right away then you might not remember where you moved it from.

Ideally, this would warn the user about the change in ownership in an obvious way (e.g., with a pop-up that doesn't go away until dismissed), then allow the user to continue and complete the move if desired.

Have you ever looked at a top-level Box folder and felt overwhelmed by the prospect of having to dig through and drill down to every sub-folder just to know what the contents are?

Do you get discouraged at the thought of looking for a single file that could possibly exist way down the rabbit hole of Box folders and sub-folders?

Would you rather have the ability to glance at a snapshot of an entire Box folder and all the sub-folders and files that exist within it?

A simple yet effective solution is a "tree directory" view. This is a feature that doesn't exist yet, but with your vote, you could contribute towards making this feature come alive.

Here is a mockup of what a folder snapshot in tree directory format could look like:

When moving/copying files and folders in BoxDrive, I want to be able to see visually that an operation is taking place.

Currently, BoxWeb displays a green dialog at the top of the screen when you move or copy files or folders,
but However, BoxDrive has an explorer-like feel, so I don't think this kind of display appears even when a move/copy is performed.

However, BoxDrive has an Explorer-like feel, so I don't think this kind of display appears when moving/copying is performed. or some other confirmation dialog. When an operation is performed, we would like to see a confirmation dialog such as "Do you want to move/copy?" or a progress bar so that the user can visually see that an operation is in progress.

This is a request to reduce the risk of users making mistakes without realizing it.

①BoxDriveにてファイルやフォルダの移動/コピー時、操作が行われていることが視覚的に分かるようにしてほしい

現在、BoxWebではファイルやフォルダを移動/コピーした際に、画面上部に緑色のダイアログが表示されるようになっていますが、
BoxDriveはエクスプローラライクな操作感のため、移動/コピーが行われてもこのような表示が出ない仕様かと思います。
操作が行われると「移動/コピーを行いますか？」といったような確認ダイアログや、
操作中ということが視覚的に分かるようなプログレスバーなどを表示させるような機能を実装いただきたいです。
ユーザーが気が付かないうちに誤操作をしてしまうリスクを減らしたいという背景からの要望です。

Hi! I was faced with the problem of file date uploading on display on BOX.

I know that usually, BOX shows "Today" or "Yesterday" if the file was uploaded to BOX today or yesterday. It's clear, but, I need to see the exact date displayed with numbers. For example, I want to see that the file was uploaded to BOX "18 of May, 2022" instead of "Today".

Moreover, I even can't see the time when the file was uploaded to BOX. I work with the client in different time zones (the difference is 10 hrs) and sometimes it is really important to know the time uploading of the file, but unfortunately currently it is really confusing on BOX.

So I have two questions:
1. Is there any way to customize the date format (how always see the date instead of "today"/"yesterday"?
2. How to see the exact time of uploading? (it is even preferable to see the timezone name to be sure when it was uploaded or at least have tools to be sure with this)

Thank you.

I would like to see version update added to the right-click menu of the app so that I can manually update when the latest version of BoxDrive is released.

Currently, Box Edit and Box Drive are designed to automatically update their versions, but depending on the user, the timing of implementation may be delayed or there may be cases where the version is not automatically updated.
In order to deal with this, we have to uninstall and reinstall the tool, which is very inconvenient.
Therefore, I would like to see version update added to the right-click menu of the app so that I can manually update it when a new version is released.

BoxDriveの最新バージョンがリリースされた時に手動で更新できるようにアプリの右クリックメニューにバージョン更新を追加して欲しい。

現在、Box Edit、Box Driveは自動でバージョン更新する仕様となっているが、ユーザにより実施タイミングが遅れる場合や、自動更新されないケースが発生します。
対応としてツールをアンインストールし、再インストールする必要が出ており、非常に不便です。
そのため、新しいバージョンがリリースされたら、手動で更新できるようにアプリの右クリックメニューにバージョン更新を追加して欲しい。

We would like the ability to display accurate information about the Owner/creator of files within Box Drive for Windows. The Owner column in Windows was used prior to our migration to Box to show who originally created the file for a folder all in a single glance. Although Box.com shows the upload history of individual files, it's a manual process of viewing each file-- a pain point-- compared to the table view of File Explorer with the Owner column displaying. Currently, within Box Drive/File Explorer, the Owner column is empty. This would be useful for the users to know who to contact regarding the files.

(Side note: Our migration to Box from file shares has modified the Owner of files to be 'Box Admin', altering the accuracy of what the users want to see -- the original creator of the file. The last Uploader in Box.com is the closest thing to what the users want to see but it is not exactly the same. )
