Dropbox StaffHey BramD, welcome to the Dropbox Community!
I'd be more than happy to help, I'll just need a bit more info on this. For example:
- Are you having trouble searching for file names of online-only files through Finder or Windows Explorer?
- Are you trying to search for keywords included in the contents of files via the website and your desktop?
- Do you see a difference in behavior when you revert files from online-only to local by any chance?
Let me know what you find!
It's about refinement.
In the web interface i can only filter on filetype.
But i want to be able to filter within the found results of one category:
My top 3:
Exclude words from your search
Put - in front of a word you want to leave out. For example, jaguar speed -car
Combine searches
Put "OR" between each search query. For example, marathon OR race.
Put "AND" between each search query. For example "tallest building" AND japan.
