Resizing bug
I was using the demo to try to capture demo slides but the application itself would not resize. It cut tools off on the right side so the application became unusable If I used anything except for full screen. I cannot use this at all unfortunately :( No demo for me.
This happened after doing a capture however once the bug appeared it just happened even opening the app without a project.2 votes -
Increase processing speed
I have found the application to be very slow in processing clicks. I am finding that I need to click or double click multiple times to get the application to respond. I am on a corporate network, not a dial-up, so I know it's not on my end.

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.

Issue: Buttons, fonts, colors must be set before production
Buttons, fonts, colors set in the design must be set before starting the project, otherwise they are not updated. Can this be changed, so any later changes during production would be updated directly in all assets and presets.

have a way to share .cpt files between users (on the same VIP sharing package) that can sync so updates show to all users in real time.
Like Creative Cloud or OneDrive or Google Drive but for Captivate projects, so changes are automatically saved and available for other users when they open the file.

Keep Classic & Call this Something Else
I've been using this software since 2006 and I'm in shock at how many critical features are missing in this version of the software. I'm not even sure how you can call this Captivate. Providing feedback here is is basically adding to the list of features we need that were already available in the Classic version. We need software that is not focused on responsive design. Keep Classic and call this something else.

{Bug} Random duplication of variables
I created 5 variables to test out the new variable system. I created these variables on a single slide and assigned them to buttons.
I then began programming advanced actions with the buttons on the same slide and I realized there was an entire list of duplicated variables all from the initial 5 that were created.
I did not duplicate the buttons on this slide, nor did I duplicate the slide itself.
- The variables couldnt be deleted until I saved the file and reopened it.

Button States not updating - Even on publish
As the title says - Button states wont update even on publish. The file reflects the changes to the button state, but the publish is showing old text and wont reflect the actual change that's in the file

Zooming in should keep focus on selected item
This is an old pain inherited from previous versions. Default view percentage is 'Best Fit' which is great. But when increasing the percentage to focus on a detail (like a button) I tend to select that item first, and expect by zooming in that the selected item is kept in focus. That used to be the case until version 8 or 9, but was also lost in CP2019. It is very frustrating.

I get an error while duplicationg a slide with several widgets and media objects (just pictures + text and just one short own made quiz, no videos) by pressing CTRL+D on keyboard (Windows OS, Charm Version EN 12.1.0.16).
Duplicating using mouse right click works.

Ensure that Captivate will still function with iCloud sync of the Documents folder enabled.
Currently, if Mac users have iCloud sync of their Documents folder enabled, Captivate will not function properly. In particular, insertion of image blocks will fail with a message of “Something went wrong with content block insertion.” Users should not have to disable iCloud for Captivate to function.
