Enhancements for Remote Work Team Visibility
For teams that primarily operate remotely or from home, it's beneficial to utilize the "WFH" checkbox. However, when viewing the team's board, the abundance of house 🏠 icons next to user names can be distracting if remote work is the default mode. In such cases, it might be more practical to display an icon indicating who is working from the office instead. This icon can be incorporated as part of the options for customizing what is shown or hidden on the event modal.
These are the proposed changes:
Show/hide House icon
Show/hide Office icon (a new addition). This option should be turned off by default to prevent all individuals without the WFH checkbox from having this icon (which is the case for most teams), as it could lead to a similar issue but in reverse.
Additionally, another enhancement could be to group people on the event modal based on their location. This can be implemented by grouping individuals with the same icon together:
🏠 : name1, name2
🏢 : name3, name4

There could be a 3rd location which is neither Home or Office - more an outside such as Coffee shop or Co-working space

Absolutely! This still applies to "Working from Home" or any remote location, which means it's not related to being at the office or the specified Event location, if set. The main idea behind this feature is to determine whether someone is working remotely or not, without focusing on the specific remote location. 😊
