How do I turn off the badge?
I work across a couple different computers, and so keep all my files on dropbox. I can see the benefits of the badge, but I'm getting really tired of clicking "hide" every single time I open a document. Or if a have multiple docs open, and click between them (as I regularly do), I have to hit the hide button again and again and again.
Any way that I can have the dropbox badge off or always hidden until I ask for it?

YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER. THANK YOU.
I have selected "never show" in preferences, but I still get the badge popping up every time I open a document (see attached screenshot). It is annoying to have to click "hide" on the badge every time I open a document. Do you have any ideas as to how to actually make the badge "never show"?
