  4. Upload docs to Canvas, automatic creation of repository folder.

    It would be helpful to have the ability to upload documents to steps in a Canvas workflow. Once uploaded, there should be folder within my box instance where those files are stored.

  6. Canvas integration into Zoom

    Once canvas is available, there should be an integration into zoom so people can use Box Native canvases in Zoom, and the result should save automatically into Box.

  7. Add Emojis to a Canvas

    I'd like an easy way to add emoji icons to a Canvas, both to help people express their thoughts and opinion on a topic, but also to help me create a more visually captivating Canvas e.g. flags, process flow icons etc

  9. Canvas - Grid markings

    When working in Canvas the grid markings are so faint, they are hard to see. Should be able to adjust for personal preference.

  10. Adding custom shapes to Canvas

    I would like to be able to add shapes to Canvas, for example the AWS shape library to mirror the behaviour of another white boarding tool we're currently using.

    This would allow us to collaborate on complex architecture diagrams using very specific shapes/icons.

    Some ways this could be introduced:
    -shapes available to all Canvas users
    - or the ability to add templates pre-populated with custom shapes
    -or the ability to upload custom shapes for the entire instance

  11. Box Canvas user tags

    We would like to turn off the user tag that follows their mouse movements in Canvas so that each person's usage and ideas can be unanimous.

  13. canvas sharing outside the organisation

    Currently one of the great things about other canvas style products is to be able to share it outside the organisation and to be able to invite a guest to contribute/edit the document.

    Currently the external user needs to have a box account I believe.

    Also a nice to have would be the ability to copy from Miro to Canvas

  15. I would like to be able to create tables in Box Canvas.

    I would like to be able to create tables in Box Canvas.
    This is requested because if tables can be easily created like in Box Notes, they can be used more conveniently as whiteboards.

    Box Canvasにて表を作れるようにしてほしい。
    Box Notesのように表が簡単に作成できるとホワイトボードとしてさらに便利に利用できるため、この要望をリクエストします。

  16. PDF & PNG Export for Canvas

    When finalizing a session using visual collaboration, it's often required to export the end product to be able to share with non-Box users, and possibly to upload as attachment to other applications. A PDF (possibly PNG) export feature would be great additions.

  17. Unify behavior when creating shared links.

    Box Canvas files in folders with the 'Only folder owners and co-owners can send collaborator invites' setting enabled cannot create a shared link using the 'Share' button at the top right of the edit screen if you have Editor and Viewer Uploader permissions. ('Share' button is grayed out.)
    Editor and Viewer Uploader users need to create a shared link from the file listing screen.

    However, Office files and Box Notes in the same folder can create a shared link using the 'Share' button on the Preview and Edit screens.
    It is confusing for users if only Box Canvas files…

  18. Enable by default the option to create a new Canvas from existing template

    When creating a new Canvas board, it would be great to have the option to select from a template enabled by default. This feature is easy to miss when not enabled for new users. The option to disable/enable can remain, but it should be enabled by default for users initially.

  19. Visual indicator when Box Canvas user is just a viewer, not editor

    When using Canvas as a viewer, the user may try to vote on the sticky notes, or try to locate the toolbar, and think that something is broken, when in reality they are looking for features available to editors only.

    We should consider adding some visual indicator of the "view only" status e.g. a banner or a badge at the top, an icon over which a user can hover over to get more info, or an icon by the cursor arrow to indicate editing is disabled.

  20. Reporting Tools for Box Relay and Box Canvas Via Console and API/SDK

    It would be nice to have a report available in the admin section for Relay and Canvas, as well as access via REST API / SDK so we can generate our own reports.
