Use the MyPresenceChooser control in Microsoft Lync Control applications to display and change the user's current presence status selection. Clicking the control displays a list of presence status options, for example "Be Right Back". The user can change their presence status by selecting one of these options. The MyPresenceChooser control includes the ability to show and select custom presence states. This control can only be applied to the currently signed-in user and therefore does not have a Source property.
