  1. SVG thumbnails corrupted

    Hi,

    We are using box to store loads of SVG images of apartment floor plans.
    When looking at a folder containing these images, the thumbnails are filled with large black areas, making it impossible to make out anything.

    From what I can see, the svg image preview is a .jpg image, so when the thumbnail is generated it probably fills some transparent areas with black.

    Would it be possible to just use the SVG as a thumbnail instead? in our case all the generated jpg thumbnails are actually larger than the original svg.

    I would provide an image / example…

  3. Save Function

    In terms of product improvement, it is evident that the “Save As” functionality is not an efficient way of saving existing files within Box. If a “Save” or “Sync” functionality is available, this would make the end user experience better. Your other competitors like Microsoft’s SharePoint does have the functionality available to just sync without needing to go through the whole “Save As” approach.

  4. Shared link permissions enterprise default

    A way to force reset everyone to the enterprise default for shared link permission level.

    A setting that would allow only a subset of users to have the broader level of sharing – say there is opt 1 – people in company / opt 2 people in company + invited / opt 3 people in company + invited + anyone with the link

    Ex. So the enterprise default for all users would be locked down to a max of option 2 (giving users opt 1 & 2 as choices) – we could allow a small subset option 3 (giving…

  5. Email upload failures, granular details requested

    Email upload failures to provide more details about the email address and folder being uploaded to. In some instances, automations get set up and users that set them up leave, which means if they start failing, the remaining users do not know what folder it is going to if they cannot locate the automation. In others, a box upload email accidentally gets added to CC. Adding the requested information would help customers hunt down the folders in question to ensure nothing improper was uploaded or to help locate the automation.

  6. Ability to edit file on external apps without saving files locally

    Ability to edit file on external apps without saving files locally.

    For example, if user would like to edit files on "Microsoft Office" app, they need to set “Files can be saved to device: On “ on Admin console > Enterprise settings > Mobile
    But some users cannot set "ON" due to their security policy. "Open In" icon is grayed out.

  7. Improve Quarantine capabilities in Box Governance

    mprove Quarantine capabilities in Box Governance - specifically when it relates to file types like .eml or .msg.
    1) Allow for exceptions - e.g. quarantine all content that is uploaded with .msg, but allow it for Y folder. Use case: one team in particular needs to be able to save this type of content to Box and has permission from legal to do so.
    2) Change the "Email" option to include "User who violated the policy" - for example, in addition to sending a warning email to Admins who want to track upload of .eml files, also send the email…

  8. Allowing the ability to ignore ownership on certain files

    We are trying to store Capture One Photoshoots on Box Drive so multiple people can access them and all adjustments are saved. There is the session file, RAW image files and various files storing the processing settings, thumbnails, etc.

    I can copy a shoot to Box and work on it fine but if someone else tries to work on it, Box won't let the software overwrite the settings file and makes copies of everything with the 2nd persons email address on it. This is related to ownership of the files.

    It would be great if we could turn that off…

  10. The ability to zoom in on BoxNotes from mobile

    When small picture attached in the BoxNotes, user is often not able to see the detail as zoom-in is not supported. I need to go back to my laptop every time and that is inconvenient.

  11. Provide the ability to customize the message that is sent to workflow participants when starting a Relay workflow.

    I have a review workflow that I want to use repeatedly. Each time I start the workflow I have specific instructions that I want the workflow participants to see. This is usually a complete timeline for the review cycle in which the current review might be the first or subsequent steps.

    My workaround right now is to send a separate email to the workflow participants, but this means they get 2 emails about the same review.

  12. favorites as a list on the side bar

    I am really frustrated that my list of favorites is not along the side bar anymore. The whole point was to limit the number of clicks, and now I have to click twice to see the list again, and it's not along the side but in the center,. Please put the favorites back along the side!

  17. buttons move

    I like the look of the new UI, but I don't like how the download/delete/copy etc buttons change depending on what is selected. For example: if I select a single file or folder the download button is to the left of the buttons. If I select multiple items, the download is now on the right of the buttons. This has caused me to delete files accidentally because I'm trying to work fast.

  18. It would be good have two people collaborate when both use box drive

    Right now, the only way to collaborate is using box drive and MS 365 online-- which has a clunky interface. Would be good to have people working in Box Drive be able to jointly edit documents. Sharepoint Sync allows that to happen, but Box Drive does not.

  19. Limit the rights of users who can change classification labels.

    ■Background
    We are currently using Box Shield to control the public scope of shared links.
    Currently, co-owners would still be able to use the classification labels even if they are set to "Owners/co owners" in the below settings.

    We want to make sure that only the owner can set classification labels.

    ■Details
    Classification labels can be configured with "Admin console>Classification".
    When the Box administrator clicks on Settings, the following settings are available:


    Classification settings
    Only allow selected permission types to modify classifications on content.
    See collaboration permission chart.
