I have turned off the internet use. I created a button for sync now, so I can sync only when I want to. I notice that it looks like a command line icon. Shouldn't this have an icon of the syncing arrows?
Maybe so, but the fact that you can click on the sync arrows themselves to force a sync makes this a low priority.
Maybe there is a bug then, because the sync arrows disappear and are no longer there.
Do they appear when you type "Sync now" in the command bar?
You are right, they do appear after you type it in, but then disappear again. So you can't do like David said and click to force a sync. As far as priority goes, I would agree that this isn't priority.
The sync arrows disappearing has happened to be in past Alphas. Do the arrows reappear when you either reboot or work online?
Restart of L4M brings it back. Click on it once and it syncs then disappears again. Enable use internet and restart and it comes back again. Click it once and it syncs but does not disappear. Seems to only disappear when offline after first use.
