  1. I want to open Box Notes in view-only mode

    Currently, in Box Notes, it is possible to switch to view-only mode by changing "/notes/" in the URL to "/file/", but this method is not intuitive for users.

    Because it is not easy to open notes in view-only mode, users often accidentally edit the notes. We would like to prevent this from happening.

    We would like an option to select view-only mode when opening Box Notes from the beginning. It would also be more convenient if it were possible to bookmark Box Notes in view-only mode.

    〈Box Notesの閲覧モードで開きたい〉

    現在Box NotesではURLの/notes/を/file/に変換することで、閲覧モードにすることが可能ですが、ユーザーにとっては分かりにくいです。
    簡単に閲覧モードで開けないことによって、ユーザーが誤って編集してしまうことが多く、これを防ぎたいと考えています。

    Box Notesを開くときに、最初から閲覧モードで開くために選択メニューを追加してほしいです。
    また、閲覧モードにした状態のBox Notesをブックマークできるようになるとより便利です。

  2. Annotation feature for images pasted into BoxNotes

    After pasting an image into BoxNotes, I want to add text or lines on top of it.
    Sometimes need to use annotations for work, but since BoxNotes doesn’t have an annotation feature, I find it inconvenient.
    We would like to see this feature implemented to improve usability.

    BoxNotesで画像を貼り付けた後、画像の上に文字や線を入れられるようにしたいです。
    業務で注釈を使うケースがありますが、BoxNotesにおいては注釈機能がないことから不便に感じることがあります。
    利便性向上のため、本機能の実装を希望します。

  3. Box language settings are not reflected in Box Notes.

    Even if I change the display language of Box, the display of Box Notes does not switch to that language.
    As I checked, it seems to depend on the language setting of the browser.
    Other features such as Box Canvas and Box Hubs are tied to the display language of Box, so I would like to see Box Notes modified to work the same way.

  4. Heading 1/2/3 Keyboard Commands for Box Notes for Feature Parity in Google Docs

    As a new boxer, I have found it odd to not have certain keyboard commands in Box Notes that I am accustomed to in other similar apps (specifically Google Docs). The one that I would prioritize would be to quickly change heading styles. In Google Docs it is (on a Mac) Command+Option+1/2/3/(0 for "Body") while text is highlighted or at the beginning of a new line.

    Hopefully this can be quickly implemented as it would be a welcome addition to heavy users of Box Notes.

  5. Functionality to embed and directly edit Excel in Box Note.

    When a shared link is included in Box Note, it is possible to embed the preview of Box's interface. However, I request the ability to directly edit an Excel file when a shared link for Excel is included.

    While Box Note does have a feature to insert tables, it inevitably falls short in functionality compared to Excel. Enabling direct online editing would allow for the maximum utilization of Box Note's collaborative editing capabilities.

    [Japanese]
    BoxNoteにExcelを埋め込み表示して直接編集できる機能

    BoxNoteに共有リンクを記載するとBoxのプレビュー画面の埋め込みができますが、Excelの共有リンクを記載したら直接Online編集が出来るように要望します。
    BoxNoteに表を挿入する機能はあるもののExcelと比較するとどうしても機能的に見劣りします。
    直接Online編集が出来るとBoxNoteの共同編集機能を最大限活用が出来るようになります。

    Hi! Can you please specify what tables functionality you are missing right now to replace Excel tables with native Notes table specifically in Box Notes (not entirely in organization of course)? We recently added table sorting, filtering, color coding and managing tables.

  6. BoxNotes table of contents width

    It is now possible to create a table of contents in BoxNotes, but since the display width of the table of contents is fixed, when a long sentence is displayed in the table of contents, the right end is cut off and becomes "...", and it is not possible to display all the character strings.
    I would like to be able to change the display width of the table of contents.

    <BoxNotesの目次の幅>

    BoxNotesに目次を作成できるようになりましたが、目次の表示幅が固定のため、長い文章を目次にすると右端が切れて「...」となりすべての文字列を表示することができない。
    目次の表示幅を変えられるようにしてください。

    Hi! Currently, if title doesn't fit the screen, there is a grey tooltip with full title name. Does this functionality help with your request?

  7. Create Pages and collapsable sections within Box Notes

    Add a feature that allows multiple Pages and Sections within a single Box Note, similar to OneNote.

    Also add a feature that allows for a collapsible section within a single Box Note - for example to use for different topics at an event, or different days at a conference - instead of making a new Note for each topic/day.

  8. Get documents into and out of Box Notes from other formats

    My organization likes Box Notes for their online-collaboration support. But when we have existing documents, we can't get them into a Box Note. And if we want to get them out, we can't do that either.

    Add import and export support to Box Notes. I'd be delighted with Markdown, but my organization can work with just about any open format. Or publish your own proprietary format. XML or JSON, we don't care! Just make it possible to get documents into and out of Box Notes.
