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.

Display Time Limit for question slides
The ability to add a time limit per question slides is great, however it would be nice to display this countdown timer to learners so they can gauge how much time they have left. Is there a system variable that could be displayed or other method to achieve this?

Add an image to the Question stem
I can't believe there in no option to have an image as part of the question stem. You can add them to the answers but that is not what I want.

Random question pools
Allow us to add random question pools to the quiz so that each student receives a randomized/different quiz. Able to do this in Captivate 2019, but not the new version.

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.

Combination characters in CSV replaced by Chinese characters
Dutch, like many other European languages has some combination characters. When I have the word 'creëren' in een CSV file, the two characters 'eë' after import are replaced by one chinese character. Too bad that I can't add a screenshot. I used Gill Sans as font. I am able to delete the chinese character, but there is no way to have the second ë with the double points on top appearing in any answer. This is a real important bug!

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.

You should be able to copy the appearance of buttons on quiz slides
You can copy the appearance of virtually anything on the main slides, with buttons being the most common in my case because I want to use a specific font, color, etc. But on the quiz you inexplicably cannot copy the appear of buttons and so now I have to manually set each Submit, View Answer, Back, and Next button on every Quiz slide individually which is a huge pain.

Saving Captions as Part of the Theme
I would like the ability to save changes to feedback captions like Correct and Failure as part of the theme. This would save me time that I presently spend updating each caption one by one.

feedback multistate object in quiz
At this moment the default position of that multistate object is at the top. However that means that the control panel for the 3 layouts is overlapping the feedback messages during Preview. It would be better to put that default location to the bottom.
BTW, it would be nice to have the Show 'captions' remain active until they are hidden again by the developer. Now you have to show them individually on each slide, which means a lot of time loss when editing the content of those messages, since you need to scroll down in the properties panel to find…2 votes -

isabel.yeo@enlighten-opex.com
The feedback responses in a knowledge/check quiz default to grey text on a coloured background and I have to manually edit the text colour for each state for each question slide.
Even worse it's really hard to get to viewing those states I spend ages clicking around and get there by accident.
Please default it to white text on coloured background, and have a clear button or something that shows how to get there and edit.1 vote -

Question Slide Submit button bug on Scorm
I am testing my course on scorm cloud. In my course Quiz questions are present. All the Quiz slides are built using default Question slides template provided by Adobe Captivate 12.3. When I retake the quiz and close the course while taking the Quiz. Relaunch the course again, it redirects me to the question slide where I left last time. Then I select the option and try to submit the Quiz. The Submit button gets disabled. I am not able to submit my question.

Simplify selection of correct answer in multiple choice questions
In previous versions of Adobe Captivate, selecting the correct answer for a multiple choice question was a single step process of merely selecting the correct answer(s) and that was it. With the All-new Adobe Captivate you need to first click on Select Answer, then select the answer(s) and then press the Done button. This is now a three step process. This process is now at least two more clicks per slide. While this is not a complicated process it will take more time to perform these steps, especially if you have a large number of question slides to produce.

Add the option to have two quizzes for example a pretest and a posttest with two different results.
Add the option to have two quizzes for example a pretest and a posttest with two different results. This allows us to see what the learner knows before training and what they learned after training.

Confusing Error log after CSV import
Since there is no longer an Advanced Interaction panel to check the total score possible, I use the SUM functionality of Excel to calculate the total score in the score column. I had 7 questions, an empty line and than the sum. When importing the CSV both the empty line and the sum line are considered to be uncomplete questions and you get an error log with a lot of errors, whereas this is not important at all. It is nice that you can override the errors and import. However I imagine that this can be confusing. Not a game…
