User Community Feedback

We are addressing this in a different way where Webex will detect that user is talking into mute and will notify the user.

Planned in 40.12

@Cisco:
in case you take this "background-color"-approach, please keep color-blind people in mind when selecting the status-colors.

or how about this:

make the Webex-Client recognize when someone who is muted starts speaking and pop up a message: "You are currently muted. Want to un-mute?"

This needs to be implemented both when in meeting mode AND when sharing a screen or application.

I realise there are a lot of iterations on when you want to be muted and when you DON'T want to be muted, but the case in question can be identified by the following conditions:

1. Your microphone is on mute (obviously)

2. AND one of the following

   1. You are speaking at a volume above a certain threshold, OR

   2. You are sharing your screen

I also realise that #2a above is a bit tricky to implement in a noisy environment, but if someone is in a noisy environment the constant changing background may encourage them to find a quieter place!

At the very least, and implementable immediately, is the colour of the "You're sharing your screen" message background. It should change from orange to red when on mute.
