Accessibility Bug: Screen readers announce radio buttons incorrectly
Two primary issues.
If using the question slide template, the multiple choice questions always announce as a group of checkboxes with screen readers, even if they are radio buttons. The toggle between single answer and multiple answer changes the state visibly, but not programmatically.
If using the Radio Group interactive component, the radio buttons correctly announce as radios, however, when navigating to the next radio option, the screen reader announces the previously selected option again in addition to the new option.
Example:
A radio group with options A, B and C.With JAWS or NVDA navigate to Option A, "Option…

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).

Spell check but also AI driven grammar, spell check and improved writing
I realize that I’m not the first to suggest this in the forums, but since Adobe Captivate 12 will be the first AI-driven version, I recommend taking it a step further. It would be beneficial to include a tool similar to Grammarly that checks spelling and grammar while also enhancing our writing for both on-screen content and AI voice-driven captions. This feature could help improve our on-screen text and spoken narration, ensuring that they represent the best version of our writing.

Set default ai voice
I would like to be able to specify an AI voice as the default for all my new projects. And if I change the speaker during a project, then use that speaker until I ask to change from that speaker. At the moment every time I go to generate text to speech Captivate is defaulting back to the first voice in the catalogue.

Certificate widget download takes a long time and truncates text in the certificate
When you click the download icon for a certificate, it takes a suprisingly long time, with no visual feedback that anything is happening. The background image and text throughout the certificate is truncated. Other than using a screen capture tool, there is no way for the user to get a usable certificate. The certificate is also very large, at over 5 megabytes in size. Attached is the correct certificate (captured using SnagIt) and the annotated certificate that Captivate 12.6.0.63 currently provides.

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

Add the option of using a Thumbnail image for the video before it starts playing
The first frame of a video not always represent what the video is about. When using videos on Slide Video or the Video Grid, it would be good to have the option of having a thumbnail image displayed before the video starts.

Publishing over an existing published folder of the same name (as after making revisions), erases the contents
If you make revisions to a project that you previously published to a folder, and you re-publish over that same folder, it erases the contents of the folder and does not create new published content. You end up with a folder that only has the project.text file in it.

Make Images Exportable for External Editing
I can't find a way to edit an image from Captivate in Illustrator or Photoshop. I am being handed a Captivate file and not always all of the source files used to create it. It'd be really helpful to have a right click and 'Edit in Photoshop' option for when the graphic file is not available. This function exists in other Adobe products, please add it to the new Captivate.

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…

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…

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.

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 state1 vote -
Rearranging slides is not working
When I try to drag a slide to a different position within the stack, it either snaps back to its original position or places it far up in the stack at a completely different position.
