How can I view my available space on the desktop app?

On my tool bar on my iMac I used to click on the DB icon & then my initial and it would show me "4.2 gb available out of 10". (for example). Now (recently) it just shows "Your account has 10 GB storage" but does NOT show how much I am using. Is there a way to get that information back so I might easily check the available storage (or the used storage and I can do the math?!)

Thanks...

I don't see an option for that in the Dropbox application anymore, but you can still see it on your Plan page.

Thanks, Rich, I didn’t wanna have to actually go and login each time to check my balance.!

The only other option appears to be opening Preferences and going to the Accounts tab. Your usage is shown there, but it's listed as a percentage, rather than a size.

It really is ridiculous that its so hidden - given its one of the main features of the software.

Its probably worth adding your voice (to mine!) over at this thread.

Great. Thank you for your responses! Very helpful. I wonder why DB decided to make info LESS available!? No need for comment. It's me just whining!
