new dropbox menu should not switch spaces on mac

On Mac Sonoma, the new dropbox menu (pop-down from menu bar icon) switches spaces when invoked. This behavior makes it nearly unusable since it requires the user to manually switch back to the space that was loaded when they invoked the menu, causing the menu to disappear in the process. The legacy dropbox menu does not have this problem (it opens and stays open on whatever space the user is currently on).

    Thanks for dropping by with this suggestion dfarrellpd​

    To make sure we’re looking at the same behavior, could you tell me whether Dropbox is assigned to a specific Space in macOS? You can check this by right clicking the Dropbox icon in your Dock, choosing Options, and looking at the “Assign To” setting. If Dropbox is tied to one desktop, macOS may automatically switch Spaces when the menu opens.
