| FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | Stretchymantis | 12/8/11 12:18 PM | From an organizational standpoint, I feel you should have a settings option (on either a per Collection or entire Collection level) to have Google Docs automatically hide a document from the Home view when moving (ie adding a label) a file to a Colle |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | CSimmons22 | 12/9/11 7:02 AM | Jason;They do have this functionality, in a way. You can't set this as the default view (unfortunately), but at least you can see it without too much difficulty.From your Home view, if you look up at the search bar, you'll see a down-arrow at the fa |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | J. L. Jones | 1/8/12 12:03 PM | Select the objects in the home view that you don't want to be displayed, then click the "More v" button and select "Don't show in home". Don't know how recently they added this feature, but I stumbled across it while searching Google (and subsequentl |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | dziegman | 1/8/12 12:18 PM | Thanks, Doktor J, for the reply! That is the best way so far... However, I agree with the original post. This is part of the "what are collections really" issue. Are they tags, are they folders, and what are we supposed to do with them? You poin |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | bkoppe | 2/21/12 1:12 PM | I wish "collections" worked just like GMail labels - no confusing folder icons, archive documents, and updated documents return to home (or, in this case, more accurately inbox) - but if they're going to work like folders, then it is definitely intui |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | Stretchymantis | 3/9/12 7:32 PM | Thanks, Chuck, for this tip! It's quite hidden and you wouldn't even know it's there, unless, well, you poke around enough or someone on the forum tells you :). Yes, hopefully they will integrate it as a default option soon(ish). |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | Stretchymantis | 3/9/12 7:36 PM | Thanks Jones, this helps also. Only thing is that you have to do a spring cleaning maintenance every two weeks to keep it tidy. But the above two options are the best ways to go about it for the moment it seems. :) |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | Varun Oberoi | 3/13/12 12:07 AM | The more i work on Google Docs and create Collections, the more i find that this option of "Dont Show in Home" is sorely needed. It is simply too cumbersome to do it every time i upload and is prone to errors. It also creates a major problem elsewhe |

Googlers are in fact listening and reading forum posts here every day :). I'll pass your feedback on to the team. Teresa |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | ruekie | 3/23/12 8:15 AM | Looking forward to Google enabling this feature. It would be best to enable it as a setting so users could choose their default: 1) Always hide document in Home when moving to a Collection, or 2) Never hide document in Home when moving to a Collect |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | revans | 3/25/12 10:09 AM | Collections provide SIGNIFICANT context. Not being able to easily visualize the hierarchical juxtaposition of our documents eliminates important implied semantics. While I assume Google is trying to give us dynamic alternative views of the relationsh |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | GoogleFail | 3/27/12 10:21 AM | The issue described in this thread is preventing me from going wholesale onto Google Docs. Using a web interface as a opposed to a file manager style/dropbox setting is bad enough -- it's almost as if Google wants to torture you a little once you ass |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | bibendum | 3/27/12 2:39 PM | Thanks for the suggestion. That was my first frustration upon migrating to Google Docs -- I have docs nicely organized into folders, but the cluttered Home view is a complete mess. Unfortunately, the "Don't Show in Home View" option doesn't stick -- |
| Re: FEATURE REQUEST: Automatically hide a document from Home View when moving to a collection (folder) | billmelater | 4/4/12 7:10 PM | I think you expressed the need best. I enjoy having my head in the clouds but want it to be a seamless file manager presentation from where ever i am and where ever I am traversing to/from. just keep a single visual and organizational paradigm please |
