Hi,
solid black icon means synched (equivalent to the "old" icon and green synched hook)
solid gray icon means not connected or starting
additional grafic elements in the icon show other status like syncing.....

At version 37.3.22 on Windows 8.1 the image below is what I see now when Dropbox is connected, idle and "Up to date".

If this change goes into the general release, I can forsee there being a great many confused users!

... rebranded last night, this brought a visual change to the client desktop tray icon. Check mark dropped on Windows, making it in line with macs
Hovering the mouse should show status, should grey out when offline too

You shouldn't "downgrade" functionality on one platform for consistency - that's just crazy! The previous green check mark was a much better option. BTW, I have just noticed the Windows Defender now uses a green check mark, which is an improvement on what they had previously

I loved some color in the menubar with the green hook too but have no influence on DB strategies.
I´m just a forum user with a little bit higher userLevel....

I do not like the lack of green check box on dropbox icon in Windows. I do not like it at all.

Hello,
I'm hoping to shed some light on this.
This build includes a change to the Dropbox icon in the system tray to include the new logo and a new behavior. When everything's synced, you'll now see a solid Dropbox icon without a checkmark on both Windows and Linux. This behavior has already been in place on Mac.
We are hoping to have messaging within the app about this change once this is available in the stable build.
Thank you!
