Removing Offline files from mobile device
I have all of a sudden run out of space on my Samsung Android phone. My cache shows as empty. My next thought is to remove some of the files I have downloaded for Offline viewing.

Hello,
the answer to question (1) is 'yes'.
You have to toggle each file in the folder. It is a bit annoying when you have a lot of files.
the answer to question (2), as you already know, is 'no'.
That 'delete' is the deletion of of the file from your dropbox account.
Thank you. I have now un-Offlined them one-by-one and cleared the cache. I cleared some other cache locations I could find before that, and a few maps, and freed up 700kb of storage, which took me out of danger, but just barely. When I un-Offlined the rest of the files, which show as 50mb on my desktop, and cleared the cache, I now have another 3gb of free storage, lots of space.
Glad I helped!
