  1. incorrect remediation sound missing from the asset library of sounds

    put the old sounds from captivate 2019 into captivate 12. "electronic tink" sound file is also missing from the captivate 12 asset library compared to captivate 2019.

    Also there is a bug on mac computer sonoma where sometimes when you go to asset and look through the sound choices in the asset library, they won't play. Also I can't see a way to add remediation sounds to the remediation states without doing it one by one for each quiz slide.

  2. allow slides to reset when the learner returns to a slide they have already viewed.

    For software simulations in Training mode, once the learner has clicked on the click box and the slide advances, if they return to the slide, the click box doesn't work, and the instruction caption does not appear. Sometimes, learners need to go back a slide or two to review information again. The checkbox and instruction caption should be available for them to click on the second pass of a slide.

  3. More formatting options Text to make the text look like buttons

    It is already possible to assign an action to text so it effectively functions as a button.

    I propose adding a customizable box outline and color to text could enhance its functionality and aesthetics, providing users with more flexibility in creating customized buttons and layouts.

    Then u could make the text match the other captivate buttons.

  4. Stat block

    It would be nice to have a block for circular graph, colum or row graph or a number that start from 0 to X. The animation could be automatic.

  5. Apply to this slide doesn't apply CC formating to other asyncronous videos on same slide.

    When working with closed captions on a slide with more than one video, applying formatting to this slide doesn't apply the formatting to other videos

  6. It's easy to get stuck when using quiz slides in Captivate

    When setting up question slides, it's easy to get stuck on that slide when users navigate back to a questions slide they already answered. There is no way to proceed.

    Add a questoin slide. Turn off the skip options. Turn off the Playbar in quiz. Add any navigation to allow users to go back to the question slide. Preview. Answer the question. Return to the question slide. You are stuck there.

    There are many reasons to turn off skip and playbar. But users are now stuck on a question slide they already answered.

  7. Pass/Fail actions in Quiz: allow condition

    The Success and Failure actions on the quiz slide are limited to standard actions. Please allow also conditional actions! Since we already lost advanced and shared actions as well as the On Enter event of the score slide, being able to use a condition would at least allow some customisation. Example: different navigation depending on the learner score (>80, between 60 and 80, below 60) is impossible now without adding extra slides and more work.

  8. Transfer value system variable to user variable

    It seems not to be possible to transfer the value of a system variable to a user variable, at least I have been trying without success. I want to show partial results of a quiz in a custom results slide (the default results slide has no Enter event). This means that I need to transfer the score obtained so far (Quiz.Score) to a user variable. There is a action Assign variable to variable but I am not able to indicate the quizzing system variable.

  9. Roundtripping with Creative Cloud

    Enable the roundtripping for the Creative Cloud programs that exist in Adobe Captivate Classic in the new Captivate version. Part of the appeal of Captivate Classic is the ease of use with the creative cloud. It would be great if new version had this feature too.

  10. Allow for audio to be played at 2x and 4x speed in HTML5 player

    In the HTML5 slide video player, the 2x and 4x button in the playbar at the bottom of the screen only speed up the slide by 2 and 4 times respectively and mute the audio. It would be a useful feature if the audio can also be sped up 2x and 4x when this button is pressed so users have the ability to both listen and watch the material at a faster speed.

  11. Bug - Image Grid Text Overflow with Card Enabled

    On the image grid design option "Image Grid Vertical C1" there is a bug when you enable the card component.

    When the card is enabled, the text area for the caption and subtitle go past the boundary of the card. The issue persists at all content widths. If you make the content 100% wide and preview the slide, the text gets cut off.

    If I add padding to the cards at 30px, it pushes the text back into bounds, but that doesn't fit with my other card designs.

    If there is a way to adjust this in the JSON files…

  12. Add a closed captioning to a slide that includes a 'Web' video as the video Source.

    As it stands now you can only import closed captions when you upload the original mp4 file. If you choose the web video source option, there is not an option to add captions. At a minimum you should allow the use of the Youtube video playbar so users can toggle the youtube closed captions. This seems like a big miss for accessibility.

  13. report for quiz settings

    Recommend a report that shows all of the interactions that are set to 'include in quiz'.

    I'm using Captivate 12.3, and I accidentally clicked on some text boxes to 'include in quiz.' It was a lengthy process to click every single text box and button in my project to find the two random text boxes in my quiz totals.

  17. Export Captions: add slide number and/or label

    The exported Word document has become even longer than in older versions due to all the multistate objects. The IDs in the first two columns have never made sense to me but in previous versions the last column indicated the slide number. Please add at least that number or if possible also the slide label. It is almost impossible at this moment to find specific items. The possibiliy to hide the superfluous states for buttons would be a great improvement as well. The document at this moment is not very friendly for localisation, which took many steps backwards also for…

  19. New Captivate Backup file Icon displays as Classic Icon

    Currently, the new Captivate backup file icon appears identical to the classic Captivate icon. To ensure clarity and avoid mix-ups between the two applications, the new Captivate backup file icon should be displayed as the new Captivate icon.

  20. Bug: carousel indicator dots not showing

    Occasionally when published, carousels with 'indicator' checked in the feature options are appearing without the indicator dots/dashes when published. I'm sure there's a commonality between them but for the time being can't work out what it is -- seemingly random.
