3. 3D/CAD File preview zoom function

   <improvement>
   Improve zoom/enlargement in 3D file preview function

   With the current 3D file preview function of Box, the display of the 3D model is small, and there is a limit to the distance that can be brought close to the 3D model even when zooming, so I would like to improve.

   <Use case>
   - BIM/CIM-based 3D CAD data can be easily displayed on a browser, which can be expected to improve communication with relevant parties and productivity.
   - The viewer of a CAD maker has high performance and high affinity with CAD data, but it has a large burden such as device specifications, software installation labor, and subscription maintenance costs.
   - Even if you do not require the functions of the viewer of the CAD maker, if you can refer to a certain 3D model with a general-purpose browser, the data expansion will be easy.

4. Ability to download comments and print comments

   Would like the ability to download and/or print comments associated with a file. Perhaps via additional selections to "Download Comments" and "Print w/Comments".

   I understand downloading comments may need to be a separate file as the content could be in various application types and comments are not created in that document type. Printed files convert to PDF so it would be great if the comments could be converted to PDF and added directly to the printed file.

   Downloading and printing comments has been a request on the Box Community site from multiple people who have also listed some of their use cases. Please see -

   https://community.box.com/t5/Web-App-Forum/Downloading-Comments/m-p/7053?advanced=false&collapse_discussion=true&filter=location&location=category:English&q=download%20comments&search_type=thread

6. Add a threaded ‘Reply’ button to comments and @mentions

   When you are @mentioned, replying to the sender with @mention requires many clicks. It would be simpler to be able to reply to the sender in one click (i.e. add a comment with sender already @mentioned)

7. Trash file from its preview

   The trash command is missing from within the "..." button of the document view.
   The workaround requires a lot of extra steps: navigate to the parent folder, select the file, trash the file.
   Moreover it is not consistant with what is possible with folders: you can trash a folder from its own view.

12. I want the ability to add comments to the version history

    Now in the version history you will find the version number (for example: V1,V2...) is currently listed in the version history, the version number (for example: V1, V2...).
    We check the contents of V1, V2... in the preview and restore the version.

    However, as the number of versions increases, it is difficult to find the exact version you need, so please add the ability to add a simple note in addition to the version number.

    【日本語】------------------------------------------------------------
    現在バージョン履歴では、バージョンナンバー(for example：V1,V2...)が記載されています。
    私たちは、V1、V2...の内容をプレビューで都度確認し、バージョンを復元しています。

    しかし、バージョン数が多くなってくると、必要なバージョンを的確に見つけるのは難しいため、バージョン番号のほかに簡易なメモを併記できる機能を追加してください。

13. Fix the Preview of Excel file versions

    Currently, previewing older versions of Excel files does not work. No matter what version is selected, the current version of the file is displayed. The causes users to think that versioning is not happening OR that they have lost all prior versions. When users download a previous version of the file, it has the correct content for that version.

17. Improve annotations for Box Previewer UI element

    One of the main feature of our proof-of-concept utilizes Box’s concept of collaborations. We want to demonstrate beyond the capability of the basic file/folder sharing by utilizing the Box Previewer UI element and enabling the annotation feature. The annotation is such a great feature to enhance business and client relationship in the digital space. We implemented this feature however we found there are some challenges and we are hoping Box can help us find a solution to create a better experience.

    1. We were able to activate the annotation but only within app users. Both our employee entities and customer entities are able to share and view these annotation. When it requires a non-app user to see these annotation (e.g. customer sharing an annotation with a managed-user created from Box.com) those annotation are not viewable by managed users and they cannot make further annotation to the same document. We are really hoping that the annotation feature in the previewer will come out of beta and be implemented in the public Box.com domain for all to use. This would complete the full user experience that we are hoping for.

    2. The highlighter, pen and comment bubble is a great start in annotation tools, however, we think that these tools can evolve a bit more with some more choices. Having control on color, pen style and perhaps dropping larger “sticky” notes to help readers to see these annotation more vividly and the ability to have finer control on how users annotate would enhance the experience to digitally markup a document with ease. You can also see with only one choice in color, it conflicts with the stardard black colored text of the document.

18. Reflect Power Point page number settings in Box preview

    When page numbers are inserted in Power Point starting from the slide following the cover page and the slide start number is set to 0, there is a difference in the page numbers when viewed from the Power Point desktop application and when previewed in Box.
    In the Power Point app, the slide on the page following the cover page has a page number of 1, but in the Box preview screen it is 2.

    There is no workaround for users invited with previewer or shared via a view-only shared link, as they cannot edit or download.
    Please reflect the page numbers set in the Power Point application on the preview screen as well, as there will be discrepancies in recognition depending on the display method.

    (日本語)
    ＜Power Pointのページ番号をBoxのプレビュー時に反映させる＞
    Power Pointで表紙の次のスライドからページ番号を挿入した場合に、スライド開始番号を0にしているとPower Pointのデスクトップアプリから閲覧した時とBoxでプレビュー時でページ番号に差異が生じます。
    Power Pointのアプリでは表紙の次のスライドがのページ番号が1となっていますが、Boxのプレビュー画面では2となります。

    プレビューアー権限のユーザーや表示のみの共有リンクで共有した場合は、編集やダウンロードができないため回避する方法がありません。

19. Support more preview fonts

    Zinc Group uses fonts that are currently not supported for Box web UI preview, Klavika and Stag. Since these fonts are used extensively in the company's approved document templates, they wish to have them added to the list of supported fonts for preview.

20. Add preview of images in WebP format

    Could you be so kind to add preview of images in WebP format?

    It is already supported by all major browsers (except for Safari, alas) https://caniuse.com/#search=webp I prefer it because its lossless mode consumes less disk space than PNG 24bit and it makes less noise than JPG in lossy mode. At present WebP images are displayed as general files within Box interface, whereas traditional JPG/PNG are displayed better as they have fancy thumbnails. Thank you in advance.
