  1. rewind audio or jump to bookmark

    I want a user to be able to partially rewind the audio of a slide they were listening, without having to go back to the very beginning of the slide. They should be able to move back and forth, just like I can do in development mode, Captivate Classic, in a YouTube video, or like almost any audio/video player. Related to this, I would like to have a "Go to bookmark" action to go to a particular bookmark in the current (or other) slide. If the audio for a slide is long, it is very inconvenient to listen to go…

  3. Carousel Widget and LMS Reporting

    I want to be able to give the user points for clicking on the items of the carousel so I can see that they viewed each one. Currently it seems I can only report if they click on the arrow. If I have 4 items, and they keep clicking the arrow (say 6 times), do they keep getting points? Seems I should be able to report on the card states instead. If they only click on 2 of 4 cards, I want the LMS to report 2 as a reportable score.

  4. Enabling a border around click boxes

    Having a border option available around a click box would greatly help when trying to draw the attention of a learner.

    Currently my only workaround is to create a highlight box, add a border to that, then place the click box over the top of it.

    Having to do this needlessly doubles up steps needed for a slide.

  5. Why can't you choose 1 image? The button icon shows a layout that you can not achieve.

    If you look at the WIDGET to add - it shows an image on the left, and copy on the right. The Design option does not allow for 1 image. I want 1 Image and copy to the left like the widget. Please fix!!!!

  8. retain initial closed caption text for text to speech

    If I navigate to another slide while typing up my closed captions for text to speech, I lose all the input text unless I generate the audio. It would be nice if the captions were to retain themselves for when I return to that slide.

  9. Add a way to keep the arrow pointer visible after the animation on a software sim.

    Currently, when the animation of the pointer is complete, the pointer disappears. There should be a way to separate the animation from the arrow graphic on the timeline so you can have the pointer persist on the screen until the end of the slide. This would be particularly helpful if you have audio over a particular slide on a simulation that is describing movements. You could then sync the movement with where it is mentioning it in the audio clip, but have the arrow pointer continue to point to the place until the end of the clip.

  10. Persistant "clicked" state for click object in simulation after returning to the slide

    Currently in Captivate 12 simulation, clicking an object to go down one path, then returning to the original slide does not result in that item persisting in the "clicked" state. (My goal is to force the learner to click on every item, which will bring them to another slide and back, before proceeding to a feedback page).

  11. Get rid of the breaths in AI voices

    Real humans do pause for breaths, but professional narrators do so less, and professional productions edit it out. So why do AI voices need so many pauses where we hear a breath sound?

  12. BUG: 12.5 Accordion Widgets broken in 12.6

    I have a project built in 12.5 with multiple accordion widgets that worked fine. After updating to 12.6, Captivate gives an error message "Something went wrong while content block insertion." and the widget is missing from those slides. For readability below, Slide A has the accordion widget built in 12.5 that I'm trying to get to work in 12.6.

    If I try to Preview the project from Slide A, after clicking to start, the window goes gray and it just says "something went wrong!" in small text in the top left. Starting the Preview from a different slide and navigating…

  13. Improve responsiveness in Drag & Drop

    The responsiveness in the Drag & Drop widget is inexistent!

    • The title and body text are on the top of each other in Tablet and Mobile mode
    • The drag objects get very small when they are images
    • The drag objects turn into numbers when they are text
    • If drag objects are text, even in desktop mode they will be on top of each other inside the drag area, so you can't drag them to another place
    • Using transparent images in the drag objects will make them crash
    • you can't configure the positioning of components properly, so the final result is…

  14. Improve the branding blocks Header and Footer

    A few improvements that can be done in the branding blocks:
    - Implement the option of making it persistent, so if the user scrolls through the content, the header or/and footer stays frozen above all the content.

    • Ability to copy and paste the building blocks from one project to another, just so you don't have to remake all the configurations again in each of the projects. I have a dozen of projects that use branding blocks and need to build each one from scratch, this is annoying!

    • Include the header and footer in the Theme Editor, so when you apply…

  15. Lack of mobility in software.

    I want to like this software as a designer, but the fact that I cannot move things around, is a little upsetting. I believe if you make that change it would help designers out a lot.

  19. allow for a fixed multiple choice answer when answers are shuffled

    A lot of us use "All of the above" (and sometimes even "None of the above") as a multiple-choice answer, but from a layout perspective it only makes sense to have that (or those) answer(s) at the bottom. Another way to think about it would be to only shuffle certain answers, but not others. Maybe creating a fixed class and having it positioned at 16 (given that 15 is the limit)?

  20. Complex calculation expression

    I have what i thought was a fairly simple calculations I wanted to set up and unable to do in Captivate 12. I have three variables, TotalBounce, Q1 and Q2. I want TotalBounce=Q1 + Q2. I cannot make this work with the current expression since that only allows an add, subtract, multiple, or divide a value of a variable by a number (not another variable).
