Webex Meeting: Step away momentarily

[RayPorter]

I've always wished there was a status button that indicates I've "Stepped away momentarily". During a long meeting, if I need to get a cup of coffee, use the restroom, or let the dog out, there doesn't seem to be a smooth way to let everyone know I can't respond to a question.

I know you can do one of the following:

1) Send a chat message: this interrupts the speaker's train of thought, and brings attention to me when I'm trying to be discrete

2) Exit the meeting and re-join: this is too awkward for a short break

Is there another option I haven't considered?

If there is a suggestion box, I would like to recommend that the developers add a "stepped away" button that shows a status next to the participants name.

Thanks!

If it is second hand then I assume you don't have a service contract to replace it.  Since the router keep rebooting, try using the following link to see if you can break in to the router and load a different IOS.

I found a similar idea on Customer Ideas site, so I upvoted it. Thanks!
