  1. Movable preview screen toolbar

    When the preview screen is opened, a toolbar appears at the bottom of the screen showing the zoom factor and page number, but since it is fixed at the bottom of the page, the preview screen is partially hidden in some documents, making it difficult to see.
    If this toolbar could be temporarily hidden or moved, it would make the preview screen easier to see.

    プレビュー画面を開くと、画面下に拡大率やページ数が表示されているツールバーが表示されるかと思いますが、
    ページの下に固定されているため、ドキュメントによってはプレビュー画面が一部隠れてしまい、見づらいです。
    このツールバーを一時的に隠したり、移動できるようにすれば、
    プレビュー画面がより見やすくなると思うので、改善を希望します。

  2. Change the wording in the log in / Homepage

    Could the wording on the home page be changed to read "Employee of..." instead of "Part of ...."? We share Box with external users and the wording is confusing as they are part of the company but do not work for it.

  3. Please separate the colors of the icons displayed in folders and files.

    Due to the release of Box Shield's new classification indicators, the colors of the "lock icon" and "shared link icon" displayed on folders and files are all grayed out.
    In the past, the "lock icon" was red, and the "shared link icon" was blue, etc., making it easy for users to see and use.

    We believe this is a far cry from Box's goal of accessibility, which is "ease of use for all users."
    In order to provide an easy-to-use environment for all users, please restore the icon colors to the previous specifications or color code them.

  4. Ability to set file sorting preferences

    Save/set file sort preferences. E.g., by "name, ascending." Set different sort preferences for different folders + universal sort preference setting.

  5. Allow me to set default sorting to alphabetical anywhere

    Please, pretty please — allow me to set default sort of folder contents to alphabetical within a folder, for any folder. Should be an option under Settings for the folder.

    I have folders numbered for steps in a publication process, and I have to click "Name" every single *#$% time I display the folder list because it defaults to most recent. I may need to access any step in the process at any point in time; recent is USELESS to me. This is sooooo cognitively draining because I am touching dozens to 100s of files a day.

    Note: this is…

  6. Date and Time of uploading file on BOX

    Hi! I was faced with the problem of file date uploading on display on BOX.

    I know that usually, BOX shows "Today" or "Yesterday" if the file was uploaded to BOX today or yesterday. It's clear, but, I need to see the exact date displayed with numbers. For example, I want to see that the file was uploaded to BOX "18 of May, 2022" instead of "Today".

    Moreover, I even can't see the time when the file was uploaded to BOX. I work with the client in different time zones (the difference is 10 hrs) and sometimes it is really…

  7. Preview support for .MXF files

    MXF is an industry-standard file format for video and audio. MXF files contain information about the media inside (metadata). This file type is commonly used by marketing teams for video content. Requesting previewing support on Box Web App for .MXF files to allow easy external collaboration on this content.

  8. Export menu of the Access Statistics for non-administrators

    【Request】
    I would like you to make the access statistics export menu available to non-administrative users.
    I think this can be achieved by allowing the user to select the destination folder after clicking the export menu.

    【Current status and issues】
    Currently, only co-administrators or administrators who have the authority to output reports can export access statistics.
    General users other than administrators can check the access statistics, but cannot export them to a file.

    The PR department has voiced the desire to export access statistics to a file.
    However, we do not want to give them co-administrator privileges because of the…

  9. Re-Size left Navigation Bar

    Currently if favourites have long file names, the display is cut off. Having the ability to resize the left navigation pane/panel would increase usability.

  10. Restrict assigning higher level permissions to external users

    we would like a control to restrict external users from having anything above a set permission level.

    It would also be great if we could review on one screen, external users to see what permission levels is assigned

  11. Need warning message when different filename/extension is uploaded using "Upload New Version"

    User can upload a new version with different filename/extension from the current version using "Upload New Version" feature. User should be prompted when this happens as this is often the user error.

  12. viewer uploader edit file name

    Would like to explore a custom permission level - between Viewer-Uploader and Editor, which would have all of the Viewer-Uploader rights, as well as the ability to "Edit File Name".

    The use case for this is the following - some users upload documents to a folder, but then need to be able to rename the documents. Renaming the documents before upload isn't an option due to specific workflow constraints. Giving Editor permission is not an option as there's been negative experiences with users accidentally moving or deleting customer folders.

    Thanks

  13. customize permissions that preserve watermarking on downloaded content

    High urgency request for the ability to customize permissions that preserve watermarking on downloaded content. Currently only “Viewers” preserve the watermark when downloading content.

    We’d like to allow customers to customize the permissions that can preserve the watermark e.g. Editors, Co-Owners, Owners.
