Several users are complaining that they find it annoying and distracting in large Webex meetings whenever someone joins or leaves the meeting, the icon in the taskbar flashes. There is no way of disabling it from the desktop app. Also, the registry edit suggested by the TAC engineer did not work.
Truly. There cannot be a more annoying feature in the history of all apps than this feature, which again cannot even be disabled at all.
And God rested on the Seventh Day.
Best news of 2021.
I confirm problem solved in 41.11 on my Windows 10 environment. Thanks Phil!
thanks Phil, I'm gratefull
Excellent work, Phil. I knew we could count on you.
This is will release as part of the normal release schedule for Nov. Exact date will depend on your cluster. Looks like all clusters will have 41.11 by Nov 14.
Phil when will the november release come out? im so excited to stop clicking the icon every 5 minutes to stop the flashing
Please stop this. I am a university student and get distracted every five seconds and cannot pay attention to lectures.
Oh well, just in time to be of no use. The one company I work with that was still using WebEx has just converted their meeting to Teams.
YEESSS
I'm in a meeting right now and NOTHING is happening, but it STILL FLASHING
SUPER ANNOYING
huzzah! Way to go Phil!
This will be changed as part of our November release. Thanks for your patience.
This alone is an excellent reason to avoid using WebEx. Such a simple thing to fix that is driving customers away. There are many other options available that don't constantly annoy you.
This is the most annoying thing ever. Absolutely unnecessary too.
All, I was able to fix this issue on my system. I now use Microsoft Teams. Problem is solved.
I would love the option to turn this off. I get flashing if Webex is not primary window, so pretty much always.
please disable this "feature".
this feature really sucks. Why can't we turn it off?
Incredibly frustrating orange flashing on all my monitors while I attend multi-day meetings. Just give me a switch to turn it off, please.
