Add option to hide sync status icon in the desktop app on Windows
Many times I share my screen in meeting and i don't want the participants to know that I'm syncing to Dropbox. So if you can add an option whether to hide or show 'sync status icon' in the desktop files so no one -but me- would know whether i'm syncing or not. Currently everyone in the meeting can know which files i'm syncing exactly just by looking, and i have a lot of meetings so disabling Dropbox during meetings is not an option for me, I highlighted below what i want to hide or make it normal icons, kindly your support.
Both green check mark and cloud icon on folders which I marked "make available offline" on Mac OS
Apple M1 Pro 16GB RAM macOS Sonoma 14.4 Dropbox v194.4.6267 For some time now I have been unable to set files or folders as "available offline" in actuality. The check mark next to the file or folder changes to a green tick when I choose to "make available offline" but the cloud icon (seems this is a macOS icon, not a Dropbox one) remains and the file does not download unless I try to open it, at which point it downloads and becomes an offline file. I have scoured the forums and the only article I can find was from the Dropbox Beta some time ago and that didn't seem to get resolved. Does anyone have a workaround or solution for this? I also have Google Drive running on my Mac and thought this may be an issue so uninstalled it but no luck.
Feedback regarding Dropbox Backup UX on Windows 10
Dropbox is buggy on WINDOWS 10 Desktop. Same on diferent computers. ALL my external drives are NTFS USB 3 or 3.2. 100% Compatible. WOrks perfect on any other cloud service. All disc is Professional (up to date). new LaCie, new Seagate, etc. And all only randomly appeared in "Manage backups". So please forward to developers: 1.) external devices visibility/detection is TERRIBLE. Like 1 random function. Need MUCH more intuitive. UX is TERRIBLE. 2.) Problem 2.: "only 1 disc of internaldisc is visible". This limitation is TERRIBLE too. I have very important files on internal SATA_lll drives, not just on C:. This limitation is useless. 3.) Why is this window NOT resizable? I cannot see the full folder / file names. it is annoying. this small size, we will scroll in fullscreen, WITHOUT ANY LIMITATIONs again. Please STOP OVER LIMITATIONS.
