1.10-pre

A Dropbox shared KP2A file is not updating changes made by KP on my laptop.
I created a copy of the KP2A file using my laptop/FileManager, but the copy doesn't show when opening Dropbox on two different Androids. The Win10/FileManager shows the 2 files but both Androids only see the one original file. And the original file contents are not updating.

I know there's something where KP2A reverts to a local copy but I can't find a way to refresh the folder view (with 2 files) or get the changes made to the original file to show.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Dropbox sync scenario on two Android devices after creating a second KeePass file and changing the original on Windows. Compare the files visible in Dropbox with their contents in the app; done means the folder shows both files and the original reflects the laptop changes.
