Dropbox laptop sync?

[redout]

Is there a way to sync a folder from my laptop to the Dropbox desktop app and have it automatically update whenever I edit the folder?

I know how to do this with sugarsync but dropbox I cant figure out and have to keep adding and removing files manually!

Help please.

Put the folder into your dropbox folder?

Put the folder into your dropbox folder?

Aye, I just realised that. I thought that perhaps it would work along the lines of sugarsync whereby I could just edit my folder on the desktop as normal and it would auto-sync to the cloud as opposed to having to move my folder into the dropbox folder.

Thx

You could create an alias of the folder to then put that folder on the desktop.
