  1. Add checkboxes with Select All or Deselect All when editing Table of Contents

    When creating courses in Captivate, we often have over 100 slides, but we only want our users to have access to maybe 10 in the Table of Contents. In Captivate 12.6, I have to deselect each slide which is obnoxiously time consuming. The "eye" icon action should be replaced with check boxes with "Select All" or "Deselect All" options at the top.

  2. [Feature/Bug] Cards Widget: Perspective and mouseover overlay customization

    Problem:
    - The .flip-card-container in the global stylesheet uses the perspective property. This value cannot be adjusted via the GUI or the designOption.json.
    - If no image is set on the front side, a gray mouseover overlay appears. Its color and visibility cannot currently be changed in the GUI or the designOption.json.

    Suggestion:
    - Make the perspective value adjustable in both the GUI and the designOption.json.
    - Allow configuring the color and behavior (show/hide) of the mouseover overlay in the GUI and designOption.json.

  3. [Bug] Quote Widget ignores styling and lacks clear component references

    Problem:
    The Quote Widget does not fully respond to styles defined in designOption.json.

    Details:
    - The containers container-quotes-text, slide-item-quotes-icon-container-1, and slide-item-quotes-icon-container-2 ignore custom style definitions and seem to have structural inconsistencies.
    - In container-quotes-card, there are no documented or discoverable component names (e.g., quoteText, quoteIcon1, quoteIcon2), making it impossible to target, enable, or disable these elements within designOption.json.
    - Several layout properties in the global stylesheet cannot be overridden locally within designOption.json.

    Suggestion:
    Document all component names and ensure that each element of the Quote Widget can be fully styled and…

  5. [Feature] Custom CSS as a first step toward an open widget architecture

    Problem:
    Widget styles can currently only be customized via designOptions.json. Many widget structure elements cannot be targeted or modified globally.

    Suggestion:
    Add the ability to include a custom CSS file at the project or theme level. This stylesheet should allow global adjustments and overrides of Captivate’s core CSS.

    In the long term, Captivate could – similar to the Adapt Framework – offer an open widget system, where custom or modified widgets are possible. Custom CSS would be a useful, practical intermediate step that provides immediate benefits and paves the way toward a fully modular architecture.

  6. Make 'Auto Fit Height' include manual Padding Inputs

    In previous updates, I was able to add my custom padding and then select 'Auto Fit Height' to ensure that the content would stretch all the way across the screen, but it still maintained my padding settings.

    Currently, when I check 'Auto Fit Height' and preview, it will remove any padding and press the elements super close together - making it a useless function because there's no breathing room on the page anymore. So what I'm doing as a workaround is manually adding tons of padding so the images/text look centered vertically on the slide. Please bring back the original…

  7. Fix closed caption importing.

    When I import closed captions, it creates captions that say "no audio" to fill all the blank space. This more or less renders the functionality useless.

  8. 13.1 bug

  9. have the hand cursor an option you can turn off like in classic

    Hide the hand (cursor) when hovering over the hotspot so I can create a "find the error by clicking on it" type of knowledge check without the hand cursor giving away the location of the right answer.

  10. Enabling a border around click boxes

    Having a border option available around a click box would greatly help when trying to draw the attention of a learner.

    Currently my only workaround is to create a highlight box, add a border to that, then place the click box over the top of it.

    Having to do this needlessly doubles up steps needed for a slide.

  12. provide better support for xAPI

    When I publish to xAPI using Adobe Captivate (modern and classic), I cannot get it to generate POST statements to my Learning Record Store when I run the content. Spent a lot of time working with my friend Claude to troubleshoot, but no success.

  13. Publishing over an existing published folder of the same name (as after making revisions), erases the contents

    If you make revisions to a project that you previously published to a folder, and you re-publish over that same folder, it erases the contents of the folder and does not create new published content. You end up with a folder that only has the project.text file in it.

  15. feedback caption missing

    I have a MCQ slide with multiple answers. If I do not select enough answers, but the ones that I do select are correct, there is no feedback caption shown. It moves straight to the next slide.
    eg.
    my MCQ has 5 possible answers
    of those 5 answers, 3 are correct
    when answering the question, if i only select 1 or 2 correct answers and nothing else, the feedback caption does not show.

  16. Add a completion dialog to the "Remove Unused Items" function

    The option "Remove Unused Items" is helpful and seems to do the job of cleaning up the project file and reducing its size. However, under Captivate 12.6.0 there is no completion dialog to inform the user that the function has been completed. A useful dialog might be something like the following:

    All unused items have been removed from this project.

    48 items were removed, reducing this project file size by 586k.

  17. Ability to Widen the images in a Checkbox

    I am using images in a checkbox but I am not able to widen the checkbox to fit in a wide sized image. The only size available to me is something almost square. Would it be possible for a checkbox or the multiple choice question slides extend in size depending on the image chosen? I am attaching an example that shows the issue. The first image is a bit small for users to see but if it could be extended to the right, it would be a lot easier. The image attached is just an example.

  19. Add speed adjustments to the AI voices

    In other programs with AI voices, we can adjust the speed. The new voices are really good, but it would be nice to slow them down or speed them up depending on the need for a slide.

  20. Fit Font to Slide

    Kathleen and I think it would be beneficial when editing a theme to have an option that adjusts the font size to fit the content displayed on a slide. i.e. ensure that there are no line breaks for the currently selected content.
