- Hi SelenaCaamano
Unfortunately, there isn't one at the time of writing. Not on the Keyboard shortcuts list. I did a load of testing and tried on the ctrl + shift commands and ctrl + alt commands which are generally used for meetings
So I have raised a uservoice here

Please vote to push it up the agenda
Hope that answers your question. Hopefully its something we'll see in the future
Best, Chris
I too have just been looking for this keyboard shortcut. Seemed very strange that it didn't get added at the same time as the icon.
Likewise i cant see how this isn't a shortcut at time of implementation.
The raise hand feature is being used by my 6 year old's school (remote learning) So i build a quick Arduino "button box" to emulate a keyboard input to see if that would help.
I build it for mute, raise hand and full screen.
Only the 1st in that list has a keyboard shortcut . . .
- ollylawrence Do you have a schematic for the button box you made? I'd like to do the same for my kids
- Here is what I built for my kids: https://github.com/edalquist/buttonbox/
Also another vote for a "Raise Hand" keyboard shortcut. The two things kids have to do CONSTANTLY is mute/unmute and raise/lower hands.
