  2. Restore the zoom feature in grid view

    Please restore the zoom feature in grid view. This feature is extremely useful in photo shoots where thousands of photos need to be seen quickly.

  4. The new formatting just implemented is horrible, why did you change it? :(

    Go back to the formatting you had, please. This new grid view is less zoomed in so it really serves as a less optimal preview!

    Please consider allowing more zoomed in grid view images like it was up until about an hour ago! THANK YOU!!

  7. I would like to be able to view the history of previous versions of files that are compatible with the Excel online previewer on the Box Web

    内容:
    We would like to be able to check the contents of Excel files that are compatible with the Excel online previewer on the preview screen by clicking on the older version, just like Word, pptx, and other Office files.
    The only way to check the contents of the old version is to download or make the old version the latest version, which is very inconvenient.
    Achieving this functionality will increase operational efficiency and convenience.

    [タイトル]Excelオンラインプレビューアーに対応したファイルの旧バージョン履歴をBox Webのプレビュー上で閲覧できるようにしてほしい。

    Excelオンラインプレビューアーに対応したExcelファイルでも、Wordやpptx等のOfficeファイル同様に旧バージョンをクリックすることでプレビュー画面上から中身を確認出来るようにしたい。
    旧バージョンの中身を確認する場合はダウンロードか旧バージョンを最新バージョンにする方法しかなく非常に不便です。
    この機能を実現することで業務効率や利便性が上がります。

  8. Enable the Translation function of the web browser in the preview

    Edge and Chrome have a web page translation function as standard, but Word, PPT files, and PDF files displayed on the Box preview screen cannot be translated.
    This is a real challenge for companies with employees of many nationalities.

  9. Preview Accuracy

    I understand that preview currently can not guarantee perfect accuracy and failing perfecting it which is the ideal solution, we'd like to be able to use MSFT online with read-only privileges. This would enable users with read-only access to still see the content displayed correctly whilst not being able to make changes or download.

  10. The version log on the right should make document type immediately evident

    When version history is displayed on the right, no indication of version type (docx or pdf) is given, other than the file size, from which an inference might be made. I told my co-workers I'm a "version nazi"--that is, I'm against starting a new Box document when we've finalized a Word document as a PDF. I want them to stack the PDF version(s) right on the old versions so that ALL versions of a specific document--whether docx or pdf--are in the same Box document. But to make this more palatable, it would help if a user could readily see file…

  11. Box Image Previews Now Crop the Preview in Grid View

    Box Preview now crops the images show in Grid View previews so the user is now unable to see the full image unless clicking in.

    The previous Grid View previews were the full image size, which allowed for faster reviews of multiple assets. Clicking into each size now adds a great deal of time to the file review process.

    Please consider changing back to the old Grid View preview system. Thank you!

  15. File preview could use "Preview As..." option

    Some people such as programmers use ".out" as a file extension for a text file. Although Box has done much work to support various filetypes in preview mode, Box does not offer a "Preview As Text" option as far as I can tell. It would be helpful to allow users to open files with "Open as text".

    We would like to be able to open other file types (those not currently listed in the supported file types) as text files, so we don't have to download those files. We'd prefer not to have to download the files just to view them.

  18. Speed displayed in grid view

    I would like to request an improvement so that even if it is displayed in the grid view, it will be previewed in a few seconds.
    It takes time to find the desired image file in the grid view, which is inefficient.
    For example, if you display a folder with a large number of files in the grid view, it will be previewed little by little every few files, and it took about 2 minutes to display 374 files.

  19. Ability to add tags to multiple photos at once

    There needs to be a way to Quickly add a tag (after one is created) to additional photos. In other words, once I create a tag once, I need to be able to add this same tag to many other photos (one at a time though) with the simple click of the mouse, or keyboard shortcut, or similar. Having to go through the process of adding tags (as I'm reading in the instructions) is too time consuming when dealing with 1500+ photos. End goal is to flag photos as "favorites", that others can see and also add flags/favorites, and/or sort…

  20. Ability for Preview UI Element to show a particular Version

    For version display, extend Preview UI element to take version id as one of the optional parameter and not default to Preview of current version if version id is present.
