Community ManagerDropbox Paper features to make your day easier
Much like it’s physical counterpart, Dropbox Paper can be used for almost anything but there are some things it is particularly useful for;

Community ManagerHi RaxAdaam! I think the best thing for that is if you make the title/date of the meeting into a H1 heading, and then make each topic into a H2 heading in the doc, you can collapse those whole sections. So if you had something like this set up:
May 4th meeting notes: (This as a H1 title)
Cookie debate: (This as a H2 title)
Yes, always.
Yes, but in italics.
Sharks: (This as a H2 title)
Notes on sharks
Notes on sharks 2
In this instance you can collapse the entire meeting section by clicking the arrow on the left hand side of the H1 title, or each specific section by clicking the arrow next to the Cookies or Sharks H2 titles. You can then either add the final solution as a H2 as well, or edit it into to the heading of that section, so Cookie debate could become Cookie debate - yes, always. You can also link directly to each of those sections for quick access.
I've added a screenshot of those stages as well as well, so does that help at all?
Thank you for the suggestion (& taking the time to make the screenshot) -- this is definitely something we can try. It kind of messes with the rest of the structure of the document, which is a real downside, but the tradeoff might be worth it.
It always seems funny to me that digital products model themselves so closely on physical ones that they overlook obvious advantages that they have over the physical version (like being able to collapse space), but I guess it just takes time for folks to adapt to the new possibilities.
I'm also going to look into the internal-links option: I had already been considering a model in which we could have side-by-side docs -- one dedicated to debate / discussion, the other to decisions / results.
Again, thanks for your time and help.

No problem RaxAdaam, please let me know if it works out for you. I'm a big fan of the internal links myself, so I'd love to know how you get on.
Amy, I have a question for you. I use Paper every day for personal and work notes.
I have noticed that Paper has not been updated in a while, at least on my end. Given how much I am betting on this platform, it would be really helpful to know if Dropbox is planning to either maintain or evolve Paper. Thanks in advance for any guidance you can give me.
@Tinchohs If you're asking these type of questions perhaps deep down you know the answer ... My guess is with the lack of activity and zero updates for quite some time Paper is very much on a back burner.... Personally I would be betting on a platform with a far bigger audience.
Have you had a look at the below.
