Bring back the green 'synced' checkmark in the system tray.
In my Windows system tray (next to the clock), Dropbox used to show that it was fully synced by showing a green check-mark over the Dropbox icon. This was really helpfull.
If Dropbox was offline, it would show no overlay icon.
Recently (and according to Dropbox itsself) this has changed, the Dropbox icon now shows no overlay if it is fully synced, but to me, i constantly think my Dropbox is offline, instead of 'fully synced'.
So the idea is: please bring back the green 'fully synced' checkmark. Or -at least- make it an option to show it.
Please upvote this idea if you agree 
Please get back to green online / synced icon. There is almost no difference between offline and online / synced icon now. :(
Totally agree. I would like the green checkmark back on full sync. Now it looks like Dropbox is not connected... I don't like the new method.
- Here is a workaround for those with linux/ubuntu (might be transferrable to MacOS and Windows) : (1) find the icon files in a folder that should be named /home/[username]/.dropbox-dist/dropbox-lnx.x86_64-37.4.29[<--- or your distribution and version of dropbox]/images/hicolor/16x16/status ; (2) modify at your convenience, with a picture editor, the file named dropboxstatus-idle.png -- for example, put a green color on it, or anything you would like in order to mean "synced" -- as usual, make a copy of the original file before any modification, so that things stay reversible ; (3) stop and restart dropbox : the modified icon should appear when the synced is finished.
Bring back the green tick please
Bring back the green tick please..why do people mess with good things....im always checking to see if up to date ...bring the tick back please
The dropbox tray icon always looks disconnected now. I can't tell the difference between the "shaded" and "not shaded" icon. Green check = synced. Just like in the folders. Put it back that way.
Please bring the green checkmark back. Thank you.
Like many others have reported, this is the first time I have to check Dropbox Community forums for an issue. I have been using Dropbox for more than five years, and green checkmark on Dropbox tray icon has always been there. It was visually easy and intuitive, making it fast and accurate to determine if Dropbox was up-to-date and working. Actually, it was so good visually that I unconsciously checked it to verify internet connection instead of the real system icon.
Moreover, of all possible design changes you could have made to it, the green checked icon was replaced with the exact same icon that has been signalling offline-mode for so many years. I fail to understand how this was not considered when you designed and pushed the update...
Please, reconsider the choice of removing the green checkmark from Dropbox status icon. As it is, the new status icon design is a downright downgrade to your service.
Thank you.
Product Managers who did this need to be fired.
Please DropBox - Bring back the GREEN TICK !
Thank you !!
