Zoom is set to bring status update information from email clients to its chat and meeting room features to make it easier to identify those who are missing from a meeting and see those out on PTO at a given time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the Zoom Meetings, some of the update changes include participant attendance status, which allows the host to view a list of other participants who are invited to the meeting but not present, provided that the host has configured the Google or Outlook Calendar integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In addition, Zoom is adding an overview of security settings that allows hosts to verify the security features introduced for the meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, Zoom will now allow users to align separate audio tracks for local recordings, which will help synchronize tracks so they start at the same point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The chat function of Zoom has also been revised and a rich text formatting has been introduced for the chat function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This provides numerous new features such as bold, italic, underlined, strike-through, highlighting, text colour, font size, bulleted and numbered lists, hyperlinks, and personal notes. This includes a feature that allows users to configure a note indicating unavailability or impending PTO for the selected timeframe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The final update will allow users to quote specific messages sent in a channel, avoiding confusion and eliminating the need for others to scroll up to get the original question or message.<\/p>\n\n\n
