Bug - Short Answer question slide is broken if you include a quotation symbol " in your answer
I had a short answer question where the answer was "1"=20'" and I kept getting a "Something Went Wong" error. After recreating the question several time, I eventually started going one character at a time to see if there was an issue with the answer. As soon as I removed the quote symbol the question began to function as intended.

Feature request: quiz component missing
Right now, including a working quiz is only possible by using a Quiz Slide. For one-page scrollable courses this somehow works by building it with components (paragraph, option box, button, reporting + including in quiz/points), but takes time and is limited.
More options are missing to share points and set correct answers easily.
It would be great to insert a “full quiz” interactive component, same as by inserting full quiz slides.

Bug: "include in quiz" function does not send any points to LMS
By unsing the "include in quiz" function with 1 point and setting export reporting to LMS to Quiz does not trigger any event in LMS. I noticed the setting "points for quiz" cannot be set to a number of points, just can be switched from points to percent.

A more rodust video player without the need of the video slide.
With the amount of video training and the vast need for playing video libraries inside menus, I would love to see a Video Player, like the existing one, but with capabilities like:
Turn on/off closed captions from the button
The ability to select bookmarks/chapters from the player.
I know some of this can be accomplished from the video slide, but it will be better if it is done from the actual video player. A more robust video player with more options. More like a YouTube experience when young learners can identify better in the video section.3 votes -
Increase number of items allowed on Timeline widget
Please allow us to add more than 6 items/nodes to the timeline widget. An upper limit of 10-20 items on the timeline widget would be more reasonable. I understand that space may be limited with some of the current design options, but changes could be made to accommodate more items on the timeline.
For example, the design for the horizontal timeline could have a scroll arrow added to the screen, to allow users to scroll left and right and see further down the timeline. Alternatively, the design could be modified (or a new design added) to use a dedicated location…

Add Ability to Lower Slide/Thumbnail Resolution to Improve Editing Time
Currently the program is super slow, and it's frustrating sitting there waiting for thumbnails of slides to process before I can even click them. I wish there was a way we could lower the resolution of our slides/thumbnails (like how Adobe After Effects allows you to lower the resolution to 1/4 or 1/2 to enable faster editing).
I don't need my slides and thumbnails to look perfectly crisp while editing and if they were lower resolution in the editor it might help me speed up my process.
I use some animated GIFs as images, and in the thumbnails Captivate is…

Playhead Not Accurate In Timeline
This is especially noticeable when I've just added a new audio to the slide. I add the audio, press play on the timeline, and the playhead is frozen in place while the audio plays uncontrollably in the background. Eventually the playhead starts moving, but it's inaccurate. When the screen is frozen and the audio is playing, I have to just sit there and wait for the playhead to start moving. If I click anything before the playhead starts moving again, the program can crash or freeze.
I've noticed the timeline is pretty inaccurate in general, and I have to time…

Hyperlink improvement
Hyperlinks do not always work. Our policy link looks like this and Captivate 12 doesn't accept it: https://epm.azahcccs.gov/EligibilityPolicyManual/index.html#t=Policy%2FChapter_400_AHCCCS_Medical_Assistance_Programs%2FMA0413.htm
If I convert it to a tiny UTL, that type of link does work. https://tinyurl.com/EPM413

Accessibility Bug: The scrolling text area does not have a tab index
The click to reveal widget forces a scrolling text box. This text box cannot be scrolled by a keyboard user, because there is no tab index on the box itself. It is also not clear that the text box is scrollable, because the thumb for the scrollbar is hidden until scrolling with the mouse. This box should be responsive on browser zoom and expand vertically to show the text, rather than cut the text off in a scrolling area. If it must do a scrolling area, that scrolling area needs the scroll bar thumb as an indicator, and also needs…

Editing Closed Captions
When I paste in what I learn is too much text into the Closed Captions area for text-to-speech, I cannot CTRL+X the text I wish to remove. I was able to to do this in 12.5 or earlier.

Accordion Widget formatting
Accordion should also allow:
- formatting the text inside the accordion tabs content, as now you can only apply presets, but not add bold or italic to the content
- more than one tab open at the same time as an option, or all the tabs to be open altogether
- copy and paste appearance of tabs
- include the tab text in the states, so the text can have different colours in each state3 votes -

make textbox in Overlay of Click-To-Reveal widget adjustable in size instead of adding scrollbars..
When adding text to the textbox in the overlay of the "click to reveal" widget, the system adds scrollbars. it would be more convenient and user friendly if the textbox could be adjusted in size. Also in proportion to the whole overlay container.

Copy and paste alignment and spacing from one block to another
I have about ten blocks on a particular slide. I manually set the alignment and spacing for each one, and then I had to do it again for tablet and mobile view. It would be nice if I could right-click on a block, copy the alignment and spacing, and then apply that same alignment and spacing to other blocks on the same slide, or for that matter, anywhere in my project.

Bug: Icons in Click to Reveal don't properly change color
When you try to change the color of an icon, any icon that is composed of one solid element, such as the heart icon, will change to the color selected. However if you chose an icon with separate elements within, such as the calendar icon, not all the elements within the icon change to the selected color.

Drag and drop with forced navigation option
I design training for a healthcare system clinical competency. Part of this training involves instruction on proper placement of defibrillator pads. Placing defibrillator pads incorrectly can reduce the effectiveness of the shock and potentially lead to harm to the patient. I previously submitted Case ADB-36997462-K9H6, explaining that I had created a drag and drop to simulate the proper pad placement process. However, there currently is not forced navigation with drag and drop that would allow me to require the learner to select and place the first pad listed before they can place the second. Is there a possibility that your…

Play head on timeline always jumps to the right side.
When I want something to appear on the stage and in sync with the audio I use the timeline. However every time I play the time line it jumps to the far right and makes it difficult to see the time and when I want a paragraph to appear on the stage. If the play head is in the middle of the timeline and I press play it should play from the middle of the timeline. But it immediately jumps to the far right and then makes everything difficult to time things on the stage. All other applications I have…
