Using open in new tab icon in Rise

Hi, Our accessibility consultant has advised that all our hyperlinks should be followed by an icon that means "opens in new tab" (it's a square with an arrow pointing up and to the right). Is there a way to add this icon so that it has alt-text (read by a screen reading program) into all my hyperlinks in Rise?

Thanks,

Linda (not a programmer)

    Hi Linda!

    In December 2022, we made a change to hyperlinks to have screen readers announce each link with the additional instruction that it opens in a new window. If you would still like an icon next to all hyperlinks, I can submit a feature request on your behalf!
