    Unfortunately the icons are not customisable I'm afraid

      I don't mean change the graphics for the icon, but the file state.

        abc9, it’s not possible to make a file available from the options provided in the context menu (when right clicking on your files). 

         

        In this case, you’d need to make your files online-only first and then, to make them available, you either need to double-click on them or open them through a third-party app instead.
