Improved messaging for "Share" dialog box and handling of Links
I have been using Box for a couple of years and still find the Share function and creation of Links very confusing and non-intuitive. For example, what are "Invited People?" and how are they different than 'People with the Link?" Why have 2 different places to copy the link? One is on the first dialog box and it appears that one takes the viewer to Box.com and they can view or download the file, but then if you click on "Link Settings" adifferent dialog box opens and there is another link you can copy. This one says Direct Link above it. There is no explanation of what that means. I have discovered that that link causes the file to download the file when you click on it. Why not have these two different kinds of links in the same place? Why does the Shared Link Settings section say 'This content is publicly available to anyone with the link..." That doesnt really make sense. The whole handling of links and Sharing files could just use a major overhaul.
