Hi

The Dropbox Smart Sync icons are not visible in XYplorer as compared to Windows File Manager. Please advice if this is a bug or some setting needs to be changed.

Please see attachments

I'm not sure exactly what he used, but I use FSViewer which has a very similar callout tool & you could get the exact same with a custom callout mask I think, I thoroughly recommend it, attached is a screenshot of the slight difference in the default callout, I was in a rush so the text isn't centered perfectly so just ignore that. :kidding: the drop shadow density is able to be fully customized as well.

Thanks, but I'm already using FSCapture latest version, but it does not have this callout. Don't want to use 2 apps for a simple task.

Regarding screenshots, I would say that FSC 8.6 indeed does have this. (Took this opportunity to see what one can do with this tool, since I have been using another one up to now.)

Hi - thank you a lot. I checked the overlay option and it shows now :)

PS: Sorry, I was not able to reply earlier. Seems like I forgot to check "notify me when a reply is posted" option. So didn't know you replied.

Hi

I used TechSmith's Snagit software.

Sorry for revival this thread.

I use pCloud (like dropbox). I checked configuration and my icons for sync is not showing... Is there another config to use?

That app is probably not correctly registered. The icon overlays have to be defined in the Wow6432Node in the registry to work in a 32-bit app like XYplorer: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node.
