  1. Hyperlink # discarded

    The hyperlinks in the PPT cannot be parsed properly, and the parameters after # will be discarded. I hope this can be improved

  2. Box for Microsoft Office co-authoring permissions per folder

    I propose the ability to change the setting for each folder regarding whether or not Box co-authorship is enabled.
    With the current Box for office co-authoring feature, all folders have the coauthoring feature turned on.
    I would like to have a switch so that some folders are on and some are off.

    Boxの共著の可否について、フォルダ毎に設定を変更する機能を提案します。
    現在のBox for officeの共著機能では、全てのフォルダが共著機能がオンになってしまいます。
    あるフォルダはオン、あるフォルダはオフというように、スイッチをつけてほしい。

  4. Should be able to share files with non Box users and they don't have to login/create a Box account.

    Why can non Box users not edit files without creating a log in. Is there a way that this can be done? I feel like they had this feature before when if you shared the file with the correct permissions folks could just open, edit the file and the changes would be saved.

  5. In Excel Preview - Ability to Sum up a total of a column

    Since we can already click on and highlight cells in an Excel file in Preview mode on Box, I would love the functionality of being able to highlight and get a Total (Sum) of cells that is displayed in Preview mode without having to Open or Download the file.

  6. I want to prevent users from renaming folders.

    Especially in Japan, it is very important from an auditing perspective to prevent users from changing folder names.

  7. excel

    I would like Excel Online to be updated so that it can handle Excel files on Box just like it can handle Excel files on One Drive.

  9. data loss in mobile applications

    Box is currently unable to save any new files directly from office mobile applications to Box fileserver locations, and the files disappear into the void when attempting to do so. After a few wasted hours of troubleshooting Senior Box Support indicated this is a result from a lack of support for mobile co-authoring functionality. An error message at the absolute bare minimum to instruct users to only save data locally would be the expectation when a file cannot be saved before data loss occurs.

  10. use @mention in the Office suites of software (Words, Excel, PowerPoint)

    Currently, we are able to do commenting of the document in Box by using the @mention. But we are not able to do the same when we are editing document in the native Ms Office software eg Words, Excel & PowerPoint. The @mention does not work.

    Would like to have the same feature when we are working in the native document?

  12. Outlook attach from box sort preference

    When using the 'Attach from Box ' feature in Outlook. I always want to see most recent items because it makes it easy to attach a link for a file that I have just worked on. I have to change how files are sorted every time to Name to Date: Newest to Oldest.

    There was a problem with the Google Spreadsheet timeline.

    For certain users, the Google Spreadsheet timeline is not displayed on the BOX and cannot be used. Available to other users. You can edit Google Spreadsheet timelines created by other users.

    Please allow specific users to use the Google Sheets timeline.

  14. Open PowerPoint Shows (.pps, .ppsx) in Box Web

    Box should recognise additional Microsoft Office file-extensions - particularly .pps and .ppsx - which when opened, immediately runs the Powerpoint Slide Show

    Currently, it is necessary to download instead, or keep as .ppt / .pptx - which would not run the Slide Show immediately, and would enable users to edit (unnecessarily)

  15. Changing Microsoft label (Sensitivity) in Office after enabling Co-Authoring

    After we enabled Co-Authoring, we are not able to change the Microsoft label (Sensitivity) when we open the document e.g. in Word because it is greyed out in Office and Box takes it from the Office file. It would be great if the possibility of changing the Microsoft label (Sensitivity) was enabled.

  16. Microsoft Office

    When collaborating on Office documents shared via Box we're unable to track changes. It would be nice to have this enabled. Essentially the same functionality as if we were working within Sharepoint.

  17. Please allow us to set the default sort preference for individual folders.

    It is very frustrating, that the folders all default to descending order by file name. This should be able to be set for each folder.

  18. launching office pop up box

    Can you add an option to tick a box 'do not show this again' for the launching office pop up. I have to shut this so many times a day and it's totally pointless for a regular user.

  20. Box for Microsoft Office Co-Authoring for Password Protected Files

    Unfortunately, co-authoring option is not currently supported for password-protected files. Box have told me this is because the system considers the password protection as a lock.
    Therefore bringing it your attention to add this feature request.

    Also we are finding that co-authoring takes a lot long to open files and it is not as smooth as its made out to be.
