Hi Jay!
I believe it is in the CloudStorage folder.

Dropbox StaffIf you mark files as available offline, do they show any green ticks? Do any of these icons appear instead?
Hi Jay.
If I manually mark a file as available offline, it does show a green tick.

This means that it should be working properly, since no icons on files means that they're 'available' as per the link in my previous post.
If you edit a file, does the small circular syncing icon like that on the article appear, even if momentarily?
If I edit a file, a empty cloud icon appears, then disappears.
Got it. I guess I was confused by this:
"A file or folder with no icon means that it has been opened either by double-clicking or through a third-party application and synced. "
None of the tens of thousands of files in my Finder have an icon. But I haven't double-clicked all of them and I'm not sure what opened via third-party application means.
What I'm gathering is that before the upgrade, synced files were noted with an icon, but after the upgrade, synced files have no icon. It's a confusing switch but I get it now.
