Cursor leaves folder name field after creating new folder
I've found two bugs in the we-based box app. These have both been happening for a while now... several months at least.
First, when you create a new folder, you can no longer just start typing the name, as the cursor leaves the Folder Name field upon creation of a new folder. Having to click back in the field is a bit of a pain.
Second, often when I'm uploading something - particularly if it's hundreds of megabytes, or part of a larger upload, after finishing the list of uploads, it will begin uploading the list again. I've uploaded a…

When restoring a version, keep the original Modified Date
When restoring a version, keep the original Modified Date. Creating a new modified date implies that the file was modified when it was not. Versions should be restored to previous state.

new folder button in move or copy window
I would like there to be a button to create a new folder within the move or copy window. I have several template documents that I copy into new folder structures when I need to use them, and my workflow would be more streamlined if I could create the folder I am copying the template into from within the move or copy feature, instead of having to create the folder and then copying the template document.

[ACCESSIBILITY] Enable preview with non-embedded captions
Currently video player requires subtitles to be embedded in the video file. It would be a great enhancement to adopt the industry standards and enable captions to be in a different file (same filename, different extension) on the same folder. That would simplify the work to be done when publishing a video with captions.

Add the ability to abort operations such as moving, deleting, and restoring from the Trash Box that involve large amounts of content.
Add the ability to abort operations such as moving, deleting, and restoring from the Trash Box that involve large amounts of content.
Box does not have a function to abort operations such as moving or deleting folders or files containing a large amount of content, or restoring from the Trash Box. By adding this function, users can abort the operations they have done by mistake.

Enhance feedback when a user unlocks a file locked by another user
There is no warning given if a user unlocks a file which has been locked by another user.
Currently we have users who are locking files, while they edit content in desktop Office apps, but other users are unlocking as they also have to make urgent changes. This is causing a conflict of edits and loss of changes.
If a user, other then the person that locked a file, unlocks a file then there should be a warning message displayed that asks for confirmation before the unlock is implemented.

Bring back pagination
Please bring back pagination! I work with thousands of files and continuous scrolling makes it much harder to search for the last file I was working on. Pagination allows me to view a certain number of files on a page which helps so much when working with thousands of files of data.

Where'd the rollover filenames on web go?
Am I crazy or did I used to be able to see the full file name when I rolled over and held the cursor over a file link? I no longer see tool tips of the whole filename.
Long filenames get truncated visually unless your web browser is wide enough to show them. The only way to see the full filename now is to click the rename pencil and view it there.
This is really inconvenient. Can we have our tooltip filenames back, please???

file upload api
Please remove the "/" after 'content' in the "File Upload" API URL from the official documentation. When triggered from Postman, the current API generates HTTP Error 400.

Comparing Saved Versions
Box automatically saves versions of documents, but no one in my company can use this feature because there's no way to compare versions of these document (i.e. run redlines).
Example: If I share a Word document with a client and they make revisions, I can see a new version was saved but I have no idea what they changed.
The automatic version saving is an OK tool if I'm the only one using the document, but it's not effective for multiple drafters.

Awful UI problem when adding collaborators
Please fix this awful UI problem: I tried to invite collaborators to a folder, and send a message. I hoped to include my contact info so it would show up in the email. Apparently any sort of URL is not supported in this message box. Ok, fine. But instead of giving me an error message and allowing me to save the last 15 minutes I spent compiling the list of collaborators and writing the message, the box disappeared and AFTERWARDS I got a red message box stating that URLs are not supported in this message box. I lost a lot…

Change default Account Setting for "Files and Folders Per Page" from 20 to 100
I've been a Box Admin for 10+ years and I've met zero users who prefer to only see 20 items per page. I recommend either changing the default to 100 for everyone or at least allowing Admins to configure that as the default for all users in our Enterprise. When I set up a new users I log in to their account and change this for them as many people dislike the WebApp partly because they have to scroll through so many pages and they aren't aware that they can change this account setting.

Provide the ability to allow co-owners to manage trashed items in Item I Own
Currently only owner's can manage item trashed by others under folders they own, we would like co-owners of items have the same ability as owners to be able to manage trashed items under Items I Own or add another filter Items I Co-Own. There are two scenarios that will be very help pull, one when the folder structures are configured such that owners are system accounts and real users are co-owners and others and the other scenario is if owner is not available for some reason then co-owners can take their tasks. This will allow co-owners to view items trashed…

Update "Not Part of Company" Text to Look Like a Button
When you share a folder or document with a client who is not a part of your organization they receive an email, they then create a login, they are then sent to a page that says "Company uses your network username and password to login to Box. Continue to login to Box through your network." There is then a Continue button and then text that read "Not part of Company" All 66 of my clients have clicked on the button and not on the text because the text does not look click-able. It would be fantastic if that text could…
