Add option to hide sync status icon in the desktop app on Windows

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.

Hi @Hani Ouf, thanks for posting today.

 

If you pause the Dropbox desktop application, does this stop the sync icons from showing up?

 

This will help me to assist further!
