Request: All files available offline by default
Moving the Mac to the new File Provider is great - very happy this is finally happening and support on the new M1 is much better. Kudos!
Feature request: Really miss the feature to have Dropbox...

Hi everyone, and thanks for your patience.
We're re-launching the option to choose the default status of synced files in the Dropbox desktop application (in the Preferences > Sync tab) for users of the newer File Provider version.
It should be available to you shortly. If you haven't received it yet, make sure to update your desktop app, and let us know if you have any questions!

Is it possible for a file to be "available offline" on multiple devices? So can the same file be available offline on my laptop and my desktop, or does that cause a sync conflict/

Thanks Walter! Still grappling with the Scrivener syncing with the last Scrivener update so the offline option seems to resolve this, but wasn't sure about the multiple devices so I'll try to mark as offline on both devices and see how that goes!
