Scrolling through documents in Files no longer possible?
With the old display, I could open a document and then click through a full screen view of each. Now its only a half screen view and its too small to read some small EFTPOS receipts! I know I can open the document in a new window, but the next/back buttons are gone and each document needs to be opened. Please reinstate the next/back buttons!!!

Yes, the pages scrollwas essential - it;s 2026 not 1942!!!
Please, please can the Files box be CHANGED back.The "new" system is completely unusable, and has thrown our entire client process for new items into complete turmoil!
> The idea of having an "Inbox" for the Inbox is a disaster!!!!
> The new "Archive is a disaster and counter productive
> The movement of files from the "inbox" to "archive is slow, time consuming and has COMPLETELY disrupted our workflow.
> Files I remove from a Bill and move back to the Inbox now seem to DISAPPEAR!!, OR they are place din the "archives" which is a list of over 10,000 items - HOW do i fid the one I want when most are called something generic like "Mobile 31 Dec 142459"
> I have 461 PAGES of items in Archive at a page list of 200 - That is 92,200 files to look thru to find what i need if they're not already in a folder
> There is NO search option in archive t find what i need, but AGAIN - ost are called something generic like "Mobile 31 Dec 142459"
> I NEVER know what date a file was uploaded, so filing in upload date is USELESS
> Bills now can not be created from the Folders in the stupid Archives are, so to create a new bill the item needs to be moved to the invoice, created, moved to the archived, and is SOOOOOOOOOO often completely lost
> My clients STANDARD OPERTING is to place items in the FILES and now they are all random in there & the clients don't know what the heck the "archives is for and they are completely sick of this area, and it has lead to A COMPLETE BREAKDOWN OF CLIENT TRUST, a hundred extra HOURS on organising new messy accounts for clients.
> THere are ABSLUTLEY NO GOOD feature in this inbox. I work with tradies and as we all do - BUSY CLIENTS who are just finding this a disaster
> the INMBOX has LESS ORDER than before & it is an AMATURE filing system that we DOI NOT have time to work around.
> MY clients are now com,plaining about the EXTRA HOURAS CHRGED due to this horrid INBOX organisation, and MY BUSINESS IS SUFFERING
> WE DO NOT Need the entire list of 92,000 PLUS documents listed - why oh why was this useless setp even added????
Please I am sooo desperate with this matter that I am genuinely going to loose my stuff!!
> The past few DISASTER "upgraeds were a infuriating - BUT THIS ONE TAKES THE CAKE - PLEASE WHAT IN HECK ARE XERO TRYING TO DO?? CHJASE WAY ALL THIER CLIUENTS AND TGHEN OUR CLIENTS???
Please . I urge,. I beg, I please with you. PLEASE CHANGE THE INBOX BACK.
It is so utterly useless, so Time Wasting, Process Breaking, Sanity Breaking, Client annoyance, employee last straw , worse move I have ever ever seen in my 38 yeras of accounting
GST intro was better./ COVID was better. Y2K drama was easier,.
Seriously - move the file button back to ONE CLICK and return the rubbish dump that is Files back t how it was - IT WAS NOT BROKEN.
