Have a "Hand Up" indicator to aid in indicating you'd like to speak

Score + 4
When using some sort of voice chat it can be hard to know when to break in or come off mute. Could we have a "I'd like to speak" indicator similar to Zoom or Teams that would visually appear on the VTT or similar?

Type /raisehand or /rh in the chat box. It will cause a pop-up to appear at the bottom of the VTT:
Thanks, it's very helpful to know that it exists at all. I've been using Roll20 since 2013, but somehow missed that! Once I saw your screenshot I had a vague recollection of seeing it before, but I guess it hadn't sunk in the first time. However, not all my players are comfortable with using chat inputs, so a button somewhere one day would be nice, even if it's just an option you can select like 3d dice.
You could create a macro that displays a button for the players in their macro bar: Go to your collections tab (the three hex icon) and create a new macro using the "+Add" button. I called it Raise_Hand as shown here. Be sure to select "All Players" in the "Visible tp Players" window. Save this new macro. Then, when the players log into the game, have them go to their collections tab. They will be able to see the macro you created; tell them to check "InBar" box and make sure that "Show macro quick bar?" is also checked. They will only need to this one time: Once they do this, they will have a button near the bottom of their screen that looks like this which will execute the "/rh" chat command for them; Kester H. said: Thanks, it's very helpful to know that it exists at all.
