  1. 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…

  2. Bug on slide interaction

    I have created an If Condition that shows a text field if 3 checkboxes are ticked. If they are not ticked the text is hidden.
    Here's the issue:
    When entering this slide and ticking the correct boxes the text stays hidden - BUT when going to the previous or next slide and then back to this slide the text is shown.
    Is this a bug or am I doing smth wrong?
    I also tried it with making the "hide during publish" but that's not working at all with the needed conditions.

    Please help me, thanks!

  4. Allow Print Page action

    In some Adobe demo presentations that I downloaded from the templates page, it allows the user to fill out a simple form, then gives them a button to print a copy of the form. This is accomplished by using the Java Script call window.print();. I suggest adding a "print current page" option in the actions panel to avoid needing the Java Script call.

  5. Create an "on screen" interaction trigger

    In projects with scrolling, we should be able to add interactions to when a block enters the visible screen. For example, when a character block is scrolled to, animations could be added to the characters and audio for the specific block could begin playing.

  6. Click box interaction

    I really miss smart shapes and being able to put click boxes wherever I want on slides that are 'regular' slides, not software sim slides. For instance, if you have a map and want to make parts of the map clickable.

    Hotspots are OK , you can change the opacity to 0 and have an invisible area to click... but I can't add an action to it to do something like take a user to another slide.

    As a workaround I use a software simulation slide and change the background image. Then I add click boxes for the areas I…

  7. Knowledge check slide icon

    I really miss the little icon that would display in the filmstrip under knowledge check slides. It was great to be able to tell at a glance which question slides were KCs and which were graded. I feel like I have to go to each slide and check in the property inspector now, which takes more time.

  8. Merged Actions to be Default

    I'm finding that as I write more and more actions almost always merge actions. Could you make merged the default and split would be an option?

  10. Duplicate conditions in interaction

    When creating an interaction I often need multiple conditional decisions (only THEN) to cope with different situations. Often those dedicions are similar. Captivate Classic allows to duplicate a decision, and edit it. Example: I want to add an end slide to a quiz which is available in two languages. Multistate objects are used for a character and two texts, and there are 4 possible situations: Pass+language1, Fail+language1, Pass+language2, Fail+language2. That means 4 decisions in the interaction which are very similar. I cannot find out how to duplicate the decisions. Result: I have to do the same workflow 4 times from…

  12. Add an Advanced Actions Description Field

    Please add a description field to the Advanced Actions window, where we can type a brief description of what the advanced action does, expected outcomes, etc. This would be especially helpful when working in teams.

  13. Hyperlink interaction

    At this moment you can only create a hyperlink for a component, not for a selected word or text part. This means that you need to insert a text block for each hyperlink you want to insert. It is good practice to make that hyperlink visible to the user, which means applying a new text style. At this moment that is not happening automatically like in previous versions.
    I would prefer to be able to attach an URL (or a file) to a word or a text part in a text and at least get the automatic underline. It would…

  14. Delay interactions by precise interval of time

    In Captivate Classic you could create an advanced action that was "delayed by" some duration. I would like to have that option in All-New.

  15. Advanced Actions

    Please allow us to create advanced actions. For instance, I need to be able to redirect a student who didn't pass the exam to the content. If they pass an exam, I need some JavaScript that will take them back to our LMS. This is impossible in the new Captivate - at least that I've found.

  16. Bug: Video slide and 'go to next slide'

    If a video slide is created, and then an interaction to 'go to next slide' is added, although the testing in edit mode shows it working, when the project is previewed or published it does not work. The slide pauses and does not advance to the next slide as intended.

  19. Conditional or advanced interactions are slow and not very glanceable.

    What was nice about Adobe Captivate Classic was that I could glance at the advanced action window and quickly determine the triggers and subsequent actions. The interactions panel hides much of its content, making it difficult to see the work that has already been performed and see what is yet to write. I want Captivate to display more details about what conditions and actions have already been performed.

  20. Create a process widget

    Create a process widget. It would be great to have a process widget. The old version was a circle which is nice, but there could also be a horizontal option that shows a process for instances that do not repeat themselves in a cycle.
