Rethink Box Notes as a Collaborative Tool
Many of the comments about Box Notes, and the shortcomings that make them seem only marginally useful to me, arise from them being treated/implemented as something totally "other", compared to other file types that one might load into Box.
Unlike other files, Box acts as if Notes all belong together rather than in the user's folder structure, and they have their own type of page or tab that is confusingly different from the standard Box interface, rather than simply opening up in an editing window if the user wants to make changes. An editing window would be much more intuitive,…

Add avility to highlight differences between any 2 versions of BoxNotes.
At this time, highlight is available but it is just once and never appear again.
This idea makes it possible to view differences between the current version and the version one generation ago by showing hilights permanentily . Sure, any 2 versions of BoxNotes are better.

Backup Box Notes
I would like to have the ability to create a backup of my Box Notes or at least label version history (e.g. add a "v1.2" tag at a certain point in history).
I have tried using the Copy feature to copy the Box Note, but the copy does not retain the comments, annotations, or history.
I have tried copying the content into Word to no avail.
And there is no download button for Box Notes.7 votes -
Shared Link Comments
We share our creative to our clients using shareable links. It would be great if non-box users had the ability to make comments on the files shared. We are switching over from dropbox and that was a feature that we use with our clients on a very regular basis. It gives us the ability to have all of their feedback in one place.
Please let me know if this is doable. It's top priority for our team :)
Thank you!

Should be able to save note mails. Like what we able to save in the notes database.
As we are able to store the notes mail as with attachment in the notes database, similarly we should be able to save mails with attachments

Make error message more apparent when slash or back slash is used in Box Notes' title
When slash or back slash is used in the title of Box Notes, it suddenly changes back to its original title as those characters cannot be used.
An exclamation mark icon quietly appears in the right side of the title, but unless I hover over my mouse pointer, it is not apparent why it changed back my title. Please show this error message more apparent (maybe always show it for the first 10 seconds) and/or color exclamation mark icon in red, so that the users can notice what went wrong.2 votes -
Search Existing Templates when creating a new Box Note from a Template
As a Box user, when I am creating a new Box Note from a template, I want to be able to search existing templates (by template name), so that I can easily re-use existing templates created by others in my organization instead of scrolling through the template list.

Disable Box Notes for Individuals Outside the Organization
It would be great if there were separate buttons to disable Box Notes either completely for everyone, or just for people outside of the organization. We use Box Notes internally for meeting planning, and we have this one client who uses it consistently to provide data, but we would really love it if she was prevented from doing so while those of us who work here could still use the feature for meeting prep.

Create new Box Note using boxnote.new
Similar to how other services like MS Word have word.new, it would be great to have boxnote.new to create a new Box Note from the URL

git-like ‘RAW’ mode for Box Notes
When I have a Boxnote with a trailing backslash (’\’) a copy-and-paste into an xterm (Linux X11, Mac OS Xquartz), it converts the backslash to a control character.
When I copy a Boxnote with a backslash I get the following:
“”“
!/bin/env bash
echo “Hello World!” \
<A0>“The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog”
“”“And the string ‘<A0>’ is highlighted.
It appears to me that Boxnote is interpreting a backslash at the end of a line as a ‘backslash<A0>’ when copy-pasted into an Xterm using vim. I tested the placement by putting a backslash in the middle…

Nesting Box Notes into Sub Folders
This seems very simple. Just one level of subfolder nesting would help out tremendously!

Keyboard Shortcut - Widescreen in BoxNotes
There is a new widescreen button on the user interface. It would be nice to have a keyboard shortcut available for it as well.
