If you open a top-level folder without having downloaded it before (see working with top-level folders), then the folder content will appear without the green check mark.
As soon as you open a file, it will be automatically downloaded and the green check mark will be attached to it. Once downloaded you can then call up the data even if no network connection is available. (A file with no check mark is only available if your device is connected to the internet).
You can also manually download files without having to open them. In order to do that simply click on the triple dot symbol next to the respective files name and select Download.
