  1. First second of audio replaying

    When I navigate to another slide, the first portion (maybe 1 second) from the first slide you are navigating from is replayed. Here is an example: https://captivateteacher2020.s3.amazonaws.com/First-Cp12-Project/index.html

  2. Fix Buggy Animations

    On an SVG object, I chose to apply an exit animation going to the right. It played correctly when scrubbing through the timeline and when clicking Test. When I previewed in the browser, the object slides off to the left (the opposite direction).
    I also applied an entrance animation to three SVG objects. I used the scale in option and I adjusted them to scale in one at a time on the timeline. This played as anticipated in the timeline. When I previewed in the browser, only the first two scaled in. The third popped in without animation.

  3. ppt and pptx import features

    Most teachers design using PPT and PPTX, so does instructional designers. So it would be ideal if you could import PPT and PPTX files to Captivate.

  4. Tabs widget

    It would be important to have the possibility of incorporating sound both in the flip cards and in the various components of the Widget tabs.

  7. Restore Control Movie variables

    The Control Movie variables were the ones I used most of all system variables and they are completely gone. This is a big step backwards. Even for the very simple Boolean ones (CC, TOC hide/show)..

  9. Enable us to move images to the location of our choice on the slide. Also, allow us to stack or overlap images on top of one another.

    Currently, you have limited control over where an image is placed on the screen. For example, I was attempting to place our company logo in the lower right side of the screen, but could not do this. I would also like to be able to add an image on top of another image. For example, I might like to have a check mark appear over another image at a certain point during the narration.

  10. Allow to use different image types for buttons and widgets

    I've noticed that only .SVG images can be used as assets for buttons and widgets such as the click to reveal widget. It would be a good idea to allows to use other file types like PNG for these assets. Normally, I just convert them to .SVG, but recently the LMS we use decided to no longer support images in .SVG format due to security reasons, so having other file type options would be very convenient.

  11. Save project as a template not just a theme

    In Captivate Classic, it was easy to reuse slides from a previous project where you had done the heavy lifting of creating layouts, animations, etc. by just choosing File Save As, to essentially create a new template (and even save it as one) to more easily replicate what you've done in a new project.

    I want the same options in Captivate 12 to save the project completely with a new name (duplicate it essentially) so that I can just update and modify content for the new project.

    I don't just want to save the colors/fonts/ I want the whole thing…

  12. Saving Captions as Part of the Theme

    I would like the ability to save changes to feedback captions like Correct and Failure as part of the theme. This would save me time that I presently spend updating each caption one by one.

  13. TTS - Connect to external speech services such as Azure Speech Studio

    Currently text to speech is extremely limited with legacy microsoft desktop and neo speech voices. Competitor products now provide the ablity to connect directly to new-gen neural speech generation platforms such as Azure Speech Studio (microsoft) and Amazon Poly. Ideally, text narrative on a slide could be generated in Azure Speech Studio with the click of a button and the audio is automatically placed in the slide. Currently I have to generate speech mp3 files in Azure, download them, then import them into Captivate which is a slow and convoluted process, especially if minor edits are required and the whole…

  15. Bug: White screen instead of course

    Randomly (probably 20% of the time) a blank white screen appears instead of courses built using new Captivate. This happens in our current LMS (Taleo), the LMS we are currently switching to (Workday), and SCORM Cloud. I've tested both SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 3rd ed. using SCORM Cloud and received the same results as our LMS. I have the completion criteria set to Quiz is passed.

    When the course does not load, this is the error displayed in Chrome Dev Tools:

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'CPProjInit')
    at main.chunk.js:1:1148493

  17. WebGL HTML package embedding

    It would useful to be able to import 3D objects into a course. This could include fbx or obj files. Game designer programs like unity can output to webGL. If we could import a webGL objects into a course we could embed mini games into courses.

  18. Bring back the Slide Notes feature

    We use the Slide Notes feature often in Adobe Classic to add notes, things to remember, and our audio script. It would be a very helpful feature to add to this newest version.

  20. Add More Buttons. Need more than three (3) Built-In.

    Currently the BUTTONS option is only three (3) buttons - need more. Our Learners/Employees need forced navigation. We want to use the built-in Buttons, but three (3) will not work. Minimum of Five would work well.
