A snapshot of contents within a Box drive folder
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:

Thanks for the thoughtful suggestion (and mock-up!). At this time, it’s not planned, but we’ll keep this in mind for future enhancements to the product!

As user with a large number of files of my own and files shared by others, would really value this feature. It is nearly impossible to find the right file by scrolling through dozens of screens.

This "snapshot" feature is FUNDAMENTAL and it is surprising that it is not offered or even being planned.
