Hi gustavoexel, thanks for messaging the Community.
If a folder is ignored using this feature, the Dropbox desktop application still needs to monitor the folder itself, even if files inside it aren't being synced.
If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.

Hello, thank you for your reply.
I do have a further question: how do I solve this concurrency problem?
For the record, I couldn't find a way to make Flutter output it's build files to a different drive. It can output to a different relative path, but this won't take me out of the files monitored by dropbox unless I shake up all my directory structure, which I'd like to avoid.- Jay11 months agoDropbox Staff
Currently, there isn't any solution that I can provide, since the file is in the Dropbox folder which is constantly monitored by the desktop app.
