Review rendering of transparent background images
Transparent images in PNG or SVG format when used as background are showing a thin line like it was being tiled, even if the tile option is not selected.
In the example attached, I have a simple SVG with an angled corner used as background, and on the bottom-right corner it displays a line of the same colour.
The same happens with PNG images.

Slide Image 'Project' Option
Currently for each slide, there is an associated background image. If a slide background image needs to be adjusted, there are two options from which to choose an image (Assets or System). It would be very helpful if a third option was added (Project) that allows developers to replace a background image with one already being used in the project. We use several images, of which many are nearly identical, and this would help tremendously. Thank you for your consideration.

[Bug] Design Option “Image” does not respond correctly to grid styling
Version: 12.6
Problem:
The “Image” design option partially fails to respond to grid styling defined in thedesignOption.json. The elementcontainer-image-textdoes not occupy the designated grid-area because it is not a direct child of thecontainer-image-cardelement where the grid is applied.In Chrome DevTools, it is visible that the instruction
grid-area: 1 / 1 / span 1 / span 1;has no effect because the target element does not participate in the grid context.

[Feature] Option for image container to grow with text in the “Image” Design Option
Version: 12.6
Problem:
Currently, the image in the "Image" Design Option does not grow when the text blockcontainer-image-textincreases in height. There is no setting in either the Captivate GUI or thedesignOption.jsonto scale the image vertically along with its content.
In responsive layouts (e.g., hero sections, split layouts), this leads to unbalanced designs, awkward proportions, and unnecessary whitespace.
See screenshotsdesign-options_image-02.pnganddesign-options_image-03.png.Suggestion:
Add an optional setting that allows the image to:
- grow vertically with the text container
- maintain its aspect ratio (e.g., viaobject-fit)
- adapt responsively to varying content heights…1 vote -
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.

[Feature] Extended background image options
Problem:
Current background image settings in Captivate are rather limited and don’t fully reflect the flexibility of CSS.Suggestion:
Add support for the following additional background-related properties and options:- Background attachment — Currently only
scrollis available. Addingfixedwould enable simple parallax effects. - Background position — Currently only horizontal alignment is supported. Vertical alignment (
top,center,bottom) and relative or absolute positioning (percent, pixels) should be possible. - Background repeat — Only
repeatis currently available. Separate control forrepeat-xandrepeat-ywould be useful. - Background size — Currently only
containandcover, as well…

Being able to copy and paste images
It would be helpful if images can be uploaded via copy/paste. Similar to how PowerPoint works, when an image is pasted onto a slide an image block is used. Also being able to copy images to reuse them without having to go through the file pathways to find the image source would help simplify and speed the process.

Enable us to move images to the location of our choice on the slide. Also, allow us to stack or overlap images on top of one another.
Currently, you have limited control over where an image is placed on the screen. For example, I was attempting to place our company logo in the lower right side of the screen, but could not do this. I would also like to be able to add an image on top of another image. For example, I might like to have a check mark appear over another image at a certain point during the narration.

Add shapes and text boxes.
We utilize shapes and text boxes frequently in Captivate Classic. These seem to be missing from the new version of Captivate.

Allow more than 6 images in an image grid
It'd be great if we could add more than 6 images to an image grid. The ability to add an infinite number to a single grid would be helpful.

Overlay text over an image - image over image placement
It is nice to overlay images with texts. e.g. to number pictures or putting adding a text to a picture like the Smartforms in CPC.
Placing Text over a picture will help in several cases to have a better user guidance.
Additionally image over image might help too. E.g a printscreen of a software and putting 1. 2. 3 above the screen according to the audio instruction.7 votes -
Compare and Contrast Image/text media block
I want a media block that has an image in the center and two text blocks on the side to allow for a compare and contrast / pros and cons content.
I would also like for it to provide images on both sides and text in the middle.1 vote -

The height and width of the images should be easy editable in page view, property of image and edition mode of the image.

Allow Highlight box on image slides
I have screen shot images in which I want to point out items using a highlight but there is no option if you are using a slide with an image. This seems only possible on a simulation slide. Same with hover box or or button. I can only add a button at the bottom using the widget, but I can't overlay an interaction on my screen shot.

Allow images to be moved anywhere on screen and then allow interactive elements to sit next to them
Currently, I can not have an image on the left and an interactive question or dropdown on the right - I can only have text and the interactive element shows under everything. These elements should be able to be next to each other.

Tell us what the expected dimensions (min and max) are for image boxes so we can plan our graphics accordingly.
I have tried adding stock images from various sources to the image boxes and invariably, they're the wrong size, which is causing me to have to perform extra work to get them sized accordingly.

Add ability to add additional text block to image block.
Currently you can only have a caption and subtitle on the image block. It would be helpful to be able to insert additional text blocks. This would allow for you to do things like adjust the timing of each text block for bullets with audio narration.
