Logic Pro X projects stored in Dropbox don't show up in "Recent"

Hi all, this is a niche issue and probably not Dropbox's "fault", but thought I'd ask here just in case.   Since I upgraded to the latest version of Dropbox for Mac (which moved the folder locati...

Does anyone know if other cloud services are having the same issues? Gdrive, Sync, icloud etc. 

 

This issue with recents not showing up on top of the automatic online only issue we now have, I might have to switch away from Dropbox if there is a service that doesn't have these issues.

 

But I assume it is a service wide change due to Apples new rules or whatever it is.

What boggles my mind is that it was working just fine couple of years ago... I signed up for dropbox just so I can share my projects. Now, it's the only thing I can't do with it.

    I have just tested Sync and it does not make your files go online only without asking and your Logic projects DO show up in recents. 

     

    So I wonder why Dropbox have had to make these changes, but Sync has not? 

     

    Sync is less feature rich and moving nearly 2TB of data is daunting or maybe not possible, but switching over may have to be the way forward.

    Same problem here... Annoying. Working for media projects and now I have always to reopen the dropbox folder to find the previous file I was working on yesterday. It must be solved soon since it forces me to move out DropBox the files for work and it is not the purpose of Dropbox.


    Checked: it only affects Logic Pro X Files from Dropbox, exclusively! Logic remembers files from other locations.
