  4. split closed captions

    I wish there was a way to position the playhead, then position the cursor in the caption, the split it into two captions. Even better, it would be great it if you could type in one caption, then set a number of words/characters and Captivate could split the caption up itself. Instead of this useful stuff, all we get is a little yield sign in the upper right telling us the huge caption will obscure the screen.

  5. Copy and paste alignment and spacing from one block to another

    I have about ten blocks on a particular slide. I manually set the alignment and spacing for each one, and then I had to do it again for tablet and mobile view. It would be nice if I could right-click on a block, copy the alignment and spacing, and then apply that same alignment and spacing to other blocks on the same slide, or for that matter, anywhere in my project.

  6. rewind audio or jump to bookmark

    I want a user to be able to partially rewind the audio of a slide they were listening, without having to go back to the very beginning of the slide. They should be able to move back and forth, just like I can do in development mode, Captivate Classic, in a YouTube video, or like almost any audio/video player. Related to this, I would like to have a "Go to bookmark" action to go to a particular bookmark in the current (or other) slide. If the audio for a slide is long, it is very inconvenient to listen to go…

  7. Lack of mobility in software.

    I want to like this software as a designer, but the fact that I cannot move things around, is a little upsetting. I believe if you make that change it would help designers out a lot.

  8. Unrestrict element placement and size.

    Currently unable to place button anywhere within the button field. All have to be together within the field, meaning limited design options. Also Icon buttons, should be able to re-size the icon within the button. Elements on screen, such as Text and Image, should be easily changed in size. At the moment, very restricted as to how the course will look. Classic Captivate was ideal as we had free rein over the design.

  9. Change the "Project End" actions option in the Preference Panel to revert back to "nothing"

    When you are setting the Preferences / Project / Publish to computer, if you choose one of the actions in the "Project End" option, you cannot revert back to nothing if you choose "Loop Project", "Close Project", "Open URL or file", or "Run JavaScript".

    In my case, I have selected the action "Close Project" but changes my mind, now I cannot revert back to nothing...

    This is outrageous as I have to generate this project all from scratch because of a silly configuration issue.

  10. You should be able to adjust the settings of each device separately.

    You should be able to adjust all settings per device so you can ensure that designs looks good across all screens. I have found it pretty impossible to work with as it is at the moment.

  11. Bug: Can no longer Preview or Publish

    I'm having an issue since the 12.5 release. I have a project with 100+ slides and new AI voices. When I preview or publish, I get only a blank screen that appears to load, then nothing happens. I can not publish anything now.

  12. Bug: Icons in Click to Reveal don't properly change color

    When you try to change the color of an icon, any icon that is composed of one solid element, such as the heart icon, will change to the color selected. However if you chose an icon with separate elements within, such as the calendar icon, not all the elements within the icon change to the selected color.

  13. AI Voice/text to speech workflow improvements

    I love this feature in then new version 12.5 with AI, however the workflow needs to be simplified. In many cases, I want the text I have on the screen to be spoken. I need to copy all that, open the text-to-speech, then paste the same information into the speech caption box, then click generate. Add a right-click option or a button that allows me to pick a text object already on the slide, and just convert it without all the duplicate effort.

  14. LMS Score Report

    Create a report like in Classic where I can see which slides/objects are reporting a score to the LMS. Sometimes you create a slide with a reportable score, then you duplicate it with the reportable score, and then forget to remove. Hard to keep track. Also show the score values so I can make sure the scores total correctly in my project.

  17. We have encountered screen freezing issue in Captivate Quiz if there are some disruption/network disconnect

    We have encountered screen freezing issue in Captivate Quiz if there are some disruption/network disconnect. The learners are stuck in a question where options and submit button are disabled. Using Skip button is not a good resolution for us. We request at least these two features to consider Captivate as an authoring tool that meets our requirements:
    • Resume/Restart bookmark popup in LMS (Not only one of them)
    • Ability to add bookmark in Question screen timeline

  18. Create a menu in the font palette to set-up substitute fonts

    It would be good to have a way to choose which fonts might substitute the fonts that the user does not have in their device or computer.

    In my project, I am creating a module that uses Lato font. When opened in mobile, it substitutes for Georgia, but this is not the best option. In my case it would be best substituted by Arial.

    You should create a form of hierarchy in the Font palette, where you choose the fonts that will substitute the fonts in your project.

  19. Drag and drop with forced navigation option

    I design training for a healthcare system clinical competency. Part of this training involves instruction on proper placement of defibrillator pads. Placing defibrillator pads incorrectly can reduce the effectiveness of the shock and potentially lead to harm to the patient. I previously submitted Case ADB-36997462-K9H6, explaining that I had created a drag and drop to simulate the proper pad placement process. However, there currently is not forced navigation with drag and drop that would allow me to require the learner to select and place the first pad listed before they can place the second. Is there a possibility that your…

  20. 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!
