Syncing icons on the files in the Dropbox folder have changed
Hello The Finder Extension Icons indicating whether a file or folder is Online Only or Available Offline are showing up in my Finder, however, the statuses are incorrect. For instance a folder that ...
Please change the sync icons back to original:
Cloud = nothing in the folder is available offline (ALL contents of that folder are on the cloud.)
White circle green check = some items in folder are available offline. (some local on computer, some on the cloud =green/white)
Green circle white check = All items in the folder are available offline
What you have now makes no sense.
Looking at a top level folder with a cloud on it, one would assume the entire contents of the folder is on the cloud, not that there might be some local stuff inside. You've made it all backwards. Please change it back.
(I have production reasons for this request as well. A white circle/green check on a top level folder tells me there is still open stuff to attend to on a job. A cloud? Nothing open, right? A job that is half complete might have several green circles/white checks inside, but the top level is a cloud, so nothing open, right?)
Hi Dropbox. A reminder that this thread is improperly marked as 'solved' and that 'guidelines' from Apple and Microsoft are not mandatory implementations. You're still allowed innovate and provide a better designed solution!
Given Dropbox does not move data to online-only automatically, it is essential that we get this viability back.
Please unmark as solved until we get an answer.
Thanks!
