View, download, and export

Hi there,
I'd really appreciate any advice that anyone can offer?
I work with Dropbox daily, alongside Adobe After Effects.
Does anyone know how to stop After Effects automatically downloading and syncing online only files when you open up a project? Often I just want to work in a limited way within an AE project (e.g. pull out a text animation), and the smart sync downloads that occur on opening can really slow the process down.
Any advice you can offer would be very much appreciated!
Thanks,
Claire
