Be right Back option

Just thinking about the following being an option to help support those that are remote users.

During long meetings, it's not uncommon for attendees to step away briefly to attend to personal needs or handle pressing matters. Making an announcement each time someone leaves can disrupt the flow of the meeting. However, this absence can create a risk of missing important questions or comments directed towards the absent individual. To mitigate this risk, an "away" or "be right back" icon could be utilized in the same vein as the "raise hand" feature, allowing attendees to signal their temporary absence.

Hi @Shawn.Henderson1,

I have seen this feature in a Webex recently, but it was on a Webex Desk system, not the Webex App itself. In case or your users are utilizing Webex Desk systems, then you could take a look at the following macro:

I know it does not fit perfectly, but still it is on option for Webex devices. As @jrsteele21 has mentioned, it is worth submitting this idea over https://ciscocollabcustomer.ideas.aha.io/.

Best regards

Igor
