Re: Editing a dropbox file

2020-09-11 Thread Chris Chaffin


I am not sure what type of file you are wanting to edit, but if it is a plain 
text file, then I just found a way of editing it right in the Dropbox app.

Here are the steps:

1, Double tap on the file you are wanting to edit.
2, Go to the bottom of the screen where it says Open Comments.
3, Now swipe left going back up the screen until you come to edit.
4, By double tapping on this edit button, it will bring up an edit field with 
the text of the file in it.
5, Now you can not navigate inside the edit box by swiping. You have to use 
standard navigation found on the rotor.

Now I can not say that this edit button is a feature for certain Dropbox 
subscriptions, or if it is available for all accounts, including free accounts. 
I am hoping that it is available for everybody.

Hope this helps.

Chris

Re: Editing a dropbox file

I believe you have to move it somewhere else, edit, then return it to 
dropbox.  I haven't figured out how to edit a dropbox file on the phone.

At 12:35 PM 9/11/2020, you wrote:

I can send it to notes on my iPhone, I can't play with it at all.
