RE: Installation of Captivate 12 ver. 12.3.0
Bug report for Adobe Captivate 12 x64 ver. 12.3.0 installation: I attempted to install Adobe Captivate 12_x64 – Ver 12.3.0, and have been waiting for at least 30 minutes with no progress. (Refer to the screen capture attached). I tried clicking the hyperlink (sign in here) with no success. A new browser page failed to launch further installation instructions. I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks,

The Captivate version 12.3.0.12 will not allow the use of bullet or numbering format. It seems to be a major glitch within the last update.
Fix the bug that happens when you try to use bullets or numbering formats within a Captivate 12.3.0.12 content section.

Allow users to capture camera and record the screen
Seems you can no longer capture a screen as a recording, and it seems that you can no longer have a camera running at the same time

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.

Allow users to have more than 6 options on a dropdown.
We are currently limited to 6 options per dropdown. Sometimes we would like to have a 1-10 option or even select from 50 states... This element should allow as many options as needed.

Missing default labels
Localisation of quizzes is now a real pain. Another example: the text 'Select an option' in dropdown lists on matching question slides is missing in default labels. Result: you have to translate manually all those texts on the slides when they are created. See included screenshot.
This label was not available in previous versions neither under Default Labels in Quiz Preferences, but it was sufficient to do the translation on the Matching Master slide. Loss of those master slides has big consequences. Translating a quiz takes me now at least 10 times as long as in Captivate Classic. I don't…1 vote -
Multiple choice Multiple answers: checkboxes please
For a MCQ slides with multiple correct answers, I would expect checkboxes instead of radio buttons. This is a globally accepted way to clarify to the user that multiple answers may be selected. It is contrary to all protocols that this should be chosen.

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.

Allow DIVs
As of now, you can select blocks that have two columns for text or an image on one side and text on the other....Just as in wordpress, you should allow DIVs to create columns or rows so we can divide a page into sections and then put whatever elements we want into each section. This is perfectly responsive and is used in a lot of web page development. It would give immeasurably more creativity for design!

Status Flags
Allow status flags in the TOC again - it's great for our helpdesk people to troubleshoot users with issues completing modules - they can see if they've skipped anything. Right now flags show the first time through, but disappear after.

Duplicate conditions in interaction
When creating an interaction I often need multiple conditional decisions (only THEN) to cope with different situations. Often those dedicions are similar. Captivate Classic allows to duplicate a decision, and edit it. Example: I want to add an end slide to a quiz which is available in two languages. Multistate objects are used for a character and two texts, and there are 4 possible situations: Pass+language1, Fail+language1, Pass+language2, Fail+language2. That means 4 decisions in the interaction which are very similar. I cannot find out how to duplicate the decisions. Result: I have to do the same workflow 4 times from…

Improve Calibration for Software Simulation - Captivate 12.3
With Captivate 12.3 (Windows 11 laptop), when I prepare to do a software simulation and select Narration and then calibrate, the audio is so quiet, regardless of which microphone I use, that it's inaudible in the project. Suggest you add the ability to manually calibrate, or address this if it's a bug.

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.

Touch screens
I know that Captivate Classic never has enabled the possibilities of touch screens, but for an application created from scratch, ignoring this is a pity. Why cannot I rearrange the actions in an interaction by dragging? The Up/Down arrow are not functional to rearrange the actions within one interaction. The old iPad app could use a touch screen, on my Surface Pro I only have difficulties within this new version. I can accept that for the canned templates and blocks, but not for something like actions in an interaction.

Translation Back/Next in Preferences
Preferences, Quizzing, Default labels give the opportunity to translate also labels for buttons (not all). Back/Next labels are there, and they are used during Review in all situations, but the translation is not applied. This means, that the developer needs to translate all buttons individually on each slide. Same is the case for all buttons on the Score slide. Since there is no On Enter event for that slide, nor the possibility to add custom states to the buttons you cannot use that score slide when you have question slides in multiple languages in one project. I really hope that…

Hint message???
In Preferences, Quizzing, Default Labels there is a 'Hint message' but after in-depth exploring this has no sense. There is no way to activate a Hint to appear, the multistate objects for the feedback messages during quizzing and Review do not have a Hint state at all. Moreover it is impossible to add custom states to any button, including the embedded buttons on quiz and score slides. I tried with multiple attempts on question level, where a hint would make sense from the second attempt, but situation is the same.

Editing Theme Fonts appears Broken
When I edit the theme fonts and select "other" after selecting my font, I get a white screen. If I close out of it and and reopen the theme editor, it reopens to that. If I then change my theme and attempt to edit it, it again goes to that white screen.
I have attached a short screenshare. Incase that doesn't work, here's a download link from dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/okruc67npsjsa8r6mfnao/Captivate-Error.mp4?rlkey=j3506e58znmkmul4x7f9orkir&dl=0

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.
