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…19 votesFeature is available in 12.4.

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.

RE: Installation of Captivate 12 ver. 12.3.0
Bug report for Adobe Captivate 12 x64 ver. 12.3.0 installation: I attempted to install Adobe Captivate 12_x64 – Ver 12.3.0, and have been waiting for at least 30 minutes with no progress. (Refer to the screen capture attached). I tried clicking the hyperlink (sign in here) with no success. A new browser page failed to launch further installation instructions. I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks,

captions move when adding new text
Force the caption to use the same font that it's used on the theme or add a caption style in the theme options to set up.

Insert Text Boxes
The software simulation of Captivate 2023 doesn't seem to have as many options as Captivate 2019 had. E.g., inserting a text on a screen when it doesn't create one for you. This would be a great feature as this can create issues when this needs to be added where it hasn't been captured. I'm surprised with the new version, some of the 2019 features haven't automatically been copied across. Wouldn't this have been easier and then improve some of the options

TTS - Connect to external speech services such as Azure Speech Studio
Currently text to speech is extremely limited with legacy microsoft desktop and neo speech voices. Competitor products now provide the ablity to connect directly to new-gen neural speech generation platforms such as Azure Speech Studio (microsoft) and Amazon Poly. Ideally, text narrative on a slide could be generated in Azure Speech Studio with the click of a button and the audio is automatically placed in the slide. Currently I have to generate speech mp3 files in Azure, download them, then import them into Captivate which is a slow and convoluted process, especially if minor edits are required and the whole…

Animate Highlight Boxes
The ability to add entrance, emphasis and exit animations to highlight boxes – exactly the same way Instruction boxes can be animated. Not sure why highlight boxes missed out on this feature when it's already there on instruction boxes???

More than 4 SVGs in a content block
Just like you should be able to add more than 3 buttons you should be able to add more than 4 SVGs to a content block.

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.

automatic captions
Generate captions automatically for audio narration just like in Premiere Pro. I'd prefer to edit the typos than have to MANUALLY type every work of the narration. This is so tedious and minor changes often require re-timing the captions several times during a project.
Please talk to each other inside Adobe and figure out how to do this in Captivate. Thank you!

Ability to drag the audio in and have a library you can reference it from
Not being able to import multiple slides of audio at once is really slowing our processes down. Please bring back the ability to import more than one file at once and to have a library where they can all be viewed at so that we can get rid of any extras that we don't need to decrease file sizes.

The ability to not have Black Bars on Video Slides when the video resizes
When placing a slide video in on the "canvas" it would be good to not have the video have massive black bars at the top and bottom.
Kind of makes the video aspect ration options irrelevant, when regardless of what you select there, the video has massive black bars on the top and bottom in a a 1:1 square

Align slide directions with direction of step being taken
When a user click in the forward direction it makes sense to have a default slide direction with the next slide coming from the right. But when they click in the backwards direction, it is visually confusing to have a previous slide arrive from the same (future) direction.
Like turning pages in a book, going back should not look the same as going forward.4 votes -
Custom Themes Prior to Recording Software Simulations
It would be amazing to be able to apply a theme prior to recording a Software Simulation to decrease the amount of editing that has to be done after the recording. Specifically, it would be helpful if the Instructions component color and font could either be defined prior to recording. And it would be thrilling if I could edit the Instructions component color and/or font AFTER recording and have the option to "Apply to all slides" like you can with the Mouse properties. Right now, the Instructions color and font have to be changed one slide at a time after…

Fix SCORM file responsiveness
When SCORM file is played in LMS the responsive size is not uniform. Widgets such as flip card and other interaction are responsive to the screen size an require scrolling because the frame size is smaller, so it is causing a frame within a frame. This hides content and makes it incredibly frustrating for our end users who cannot see entire interactive elements. All elements in the SCORM file should be responsive to the frame size, not a mix of frame and screen.

Save changes to Theme without having to open Theme Builder
A huge time saver for me would be able to change the formating of an object, such as a heading or title, and right-click on the object and save that change to the Theme for the project. This way, all my titles could be instantly updated to reflect that change. Presently this is a cumbersome process.

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.
