How to adjust the document list width on the IPad app
Is it possible to make the document list wider in the IPad app, if so, how? I can't see the full name of most of my files and I am now at my wits end.
There is a work-around in iOS 11.
Open DropBox.
Slide up to see dock. Pick any program on the dock and slide up to create a separate window and then enlarge that window to half screen.
Now you can see the whole file names.
Messy, but it works.
My solution: Google Drive
Yeah, but google drive has it's own list of issues.

Hey
- I just bought my first iPad (2017 Pro) and after 30yrs of PC Network Engineer find many aspects of the apple platform, a joke.
Dropbox has really saved me!!!
In the document list column, it's to narrow to discern hardly any of the file names. There is extra room around the file icon and the local arrow and option arrow to squeeze in two more digits.
The easiest programmer change would be, to add an option where it now offers "list view" to include "wide file column view" and make it twice as wide.There is a work-around in iOS 11.

Thx Jane, do have to say it's a farily egregious UX error to have a file management app where you can't actually read the file names? It's driving me mental.
