Can I make the timeline in Dropbox Paper span to only this year?

I'm using the timeline in a Paper Doc and I can't figure out how to start the timeline on January 1, 2024 so it'll only span this year. When I scroll the timeline to earlier dates, it seems to go back to 2023 and before. I just want the timeline to span this year. I know you can set it up be viewable for the year but I want to be able to see a month-to-month view for 2024 -- I don't need the timeline to scroll back any earlier. Any tips on how to do this? 

  • Hi there heidibh - thanks for using Dropbox and welcome to the Community!

     

    I'm afraid it's not possible to limit the timeline to span to only one year in Dropbox Paper at this time, but you should be able see a month to month view for 2024 if you choose the relevant option from the timeline's drop-down options.

     

    I hope this clears things up and let us know if you have any other questions.

      Thanks for the response. I might suggest this as a feature improvement down the line. Being able to set up a timeline that covers a specific window of time would be a great option to have!
