"Virtual Documents" / Groupings of documents that together form one master document
Box should have the ability to get documents together in a collection. This collection should then be versionable, regardless of the versions of the documents.
Thinks a personal dossier. Some documents might update a couple of time, before I declare the whole dossier as a new version.
Tools like documentum have a concept of virtual documents. My opinion to those implementation is that they are really bad from a user perspective. Therefore we should do it better.

Improve viewer-uploader copy experience
Copy is only possible for viewer-uploader through shortcut. It should be available through button/command too, it would be consistent with other role and it would improve user productivity

Strip down and rebuild.
I've been a user for years. It used to be easy and reliable. It is now a nonintuitive stupid mess. And it doesn't even work properly. I just tried to download a bunch of files, twice, and both times the zipped folder could not be opened.

Save draft email and addresses for Send Shared Link until sent
I have a request to fix what I consider a flaw in the Box.com environment. When I share a file or folder, I sometimes decide to add restrictions after I have already put in all the email addresses and typed up a message. However, if I go to the restrictions page and then come back to the message page, ALL of my email addresses and the message I typed are GONE! In other words, I have to start all over again. Can this be changed so that you can toggle back and forth between the message page and the restrictions…

Update shared link expiration workflow is confusing
The workflow to update the shared link expiration date on the mobile app is confusing and not intuitive.
Here’s what I would have expected to happen:
- I get email in my inbox warning me that a file or folder that I own or collaborate on is expiring soon
- I click the link contained in the email
- I see a screen that gives me an option to extend the date or not
- I make an update or leave it as-is and confirm
- Done
Instead here’s what actually happens
- I get email in my inbox warning me that a file or folder…

Filter search for "Files with all tags" when searching with tags
Currently when you search for multiple tags you receive results for anything with any of those tags. It would be very helpful to be able to filter this result to something like "Only show files with all of these tags"

Add "Copy file" and "Copy shared link" to the horizontal bar in Box preview
When I get shared links for which I want to reuse to create my own decks I have to download the file , make changes and upload it back. Would be convenient for the user to just "copy" the file because at that point they had download rights anyways
When I get shared links and I want to share the file further its not clear to me that I could copy the same url and send it ahead. Some users end up downloading the file in order to share further which leads to data fragmentation

Shared With Me - Folder Management for Collaboration Folders
We would like to have a "Shared with Me" folder for any folders we have been collaborated into.
We continually get feature requests for Box to allow a way to organize content shared with me. For example, I'd like to create a "Shared with me" folder that all the content shared with me could be organized into.
I envision this could happen in one of a few ways and there would need to be some determination how much control the end user has....Option 1:
- Allow end users to check a setting that would create a folder called "Shared…567 votes -
File should no longer be highlighted when not selected
You can select the item in Box Webapp by clicking it and the item turns light blue/grayish to indicate that it’s selected. You can uncheck it by clicking the blank area but the color for that item remains (though it gets a bit lighter). This is confusing and color should disappear if item is not selected.

Show All Files instead of current folder during Move/Copy
Our end users have been complaining about the recent change to the move/copy functionality. Previously, when you would click move/copy, it would take you to the all files display. Now it takes you to the folder you are already in, which they say is counterintuitive. These users are moving hundreds of files a day and are unhappy about extra step/click needed now.

Interesting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

Preview save and display last viewed page when returning
Have webapp revert to last page you were on (e.g. page 4 out of 10) after exiting out of preview. Currently if you exit a preview it takes you back to page 1 which is cumbersome and undesired.

Exact search queries using quotes should not include wildcards
Currently as per Box's community article, all searches implicitly include trailing wildcards:
"Trailing wildcards are implicitly included in search results because of the way text is indexed. Searching for Bo results in items with the words Box or Boat or Boxer. It is the equivalent of searching for Bo* or Bo% in traditional search engines. Traditional wildcard notation is not supported by Box, such as %ox% "
However, this leads to search results that are both 1) too wide and 2) not intuitive based on search norms
i.e., one would think that searching (with quotes) for " Box " would…
