  1. allow for a fixed multiple choice answer when answers are shuffled

    A lot of us use "All of the above" (and sometimes even "None of the above") as a multiple-choice answer, but from a layout perspective it only makes sense to have that (or those) answer(s) at the bottom. Another way to think about it would be to only shuffle certain answers, but not others. Maybe creating a fixed class and having it positioned at 16 (given that 15 is the limit)?

  2. be able to copy paste from another project

    In 2019 Captivate, you can copy/paste an entire slide or section of slides from one project to another. You don't seem to have this option in the new version. The clipboard doesn't seem to work across projects. This would be very helpful.

    BUG!

    Assets panels again...

    When using the Assets panel, if you use the search field to find a template and choose to insert it, it never stops loading.

    Adobe Support has suggested scrolling down to find what you need, instead of searching for what you need. Not good enough. This bug needs to be fixed ASAP!

    The new Adobe Captivate looks a lot like an unfinished product, puts Adobe's reputation at risk. I use other Adobe products since 1994 and have never seen anything so inconsistent.

  4. space bar plays/pauses

    Unless we are actively editing text, can you make it so that whenever a timeline shows, the space bar plays/pauses? Please include the timeline for closed captions.

  5. Show full slide name

    Please show the entire slide name. I would say give the option of showing two lines on the list of slides. Even if you can do that though, please display two lines or more in the properties area on the right. It kills me that you have to click on the name to edit it, in order to use your arrow key to move around and read it.

  6. The labels are not changing in my project when I change them under preferences

    When I open quizzing labels under preferences, I am able to change the default labels to my desired statement. However, when I run a preview on the slide, the labels are back to the system default labels, not the statement I chose.

  7. Simulation highlight boxes in theme editor

    It would be very helpful to have simulation elements design properties be added to the theme editor so that they do not need to be manually changed in each project. I believe this was a feature in Captivate classic.

  9. Ability to convert own voice into TTS/Speech Agent Format

    Is there a way to convert your own voice into a File Format that can be imported into the Captivate Library that can be used as TTS/Text-To-Speech or a Speech Agents?

  10. Display Time Limit for question slides

    The ability to add a time limit per question slides is great, however it would be nice to display this countdown timer to learners so they can gauge how much time they have left. Is there a system variable that could be displayed or other method to achieve this?

  12. CCs in widgets

    Allow for CCs when using audio attached to widgets or multistate objects. Much of the allure and design functionality in captivate is not usable if you need closed captioning for accessability--WHICH IS ALMOST EVERY eLEARNING DEVELOPER!!! We're limited to just the basic blocks which have less functionality than a wordpress page from 2010!!!

  14. Jump to bookmark with Overlay - Audio Issue

    On my main slide, I added bookmarks (located after the slide audio). The bookmarks open an overlay slide with audio. If I jump to the first bookmark before the main slide audio is finished, the overlay opens and the overlay audio plays; however, the main slide audio also starts over and plays at the same time. If I wait for the main slide audio to end and jump to the first bookmark, it does not happen.

    Note - it works fine in preview but not after publishing.

  15. Add ability to change states of text block - not just the components within the block

    It would be great if there was an option to change the state of a text block, not just the components within the block.

    For example, I'd like the ability to change the text of the title subtitle, but I also want to be able to change the background color of the entire block based on an action of the user.

  16. Enable more design features for the quiz slides

    Currently if you insert a quiz slide you cannot add any additional design elements - they are all greyed out. It would be great if there was more flexibility with the design on these slides as it is a critical slide for e-learning

    Font bug: When simply changing a default font Georgia from a text and image block to "Lato" font, the software crashes. The font can be used in any other Adobe applications so not sure why Captivate crashes with such a simple task.
