  1. Cards and LMS Reporting

    I want to be able to give the user points for clicking on each of the cards l so I can see that they viewed each one. Currently it seems I can tag the image on the card as reportable if it's clicked, and I can tag the Title of the card as reportable, but if you just click within the card and not on the icon or a label direclty, seems I can't report the fact that the card was flipped as a score to the LMS. For example, if there are 4 cards, and the user clicked 3,…

  2. Carousel Widget and LMS Reporting

    I want to be able to give the user points for clicking on the items of the carousel so I can see that they viewed each one. Currently it seems I can only report if they click on the arrow. If I have 4 items, and they keep clicking the arrow (say 6 times), do they keep getting points? Seems I should be able to report on the card states instead. If they only click on 2 of 4 cards, I want the LMS to report 2 as a reportable score.

  3. Add a way to keep the arrow pointer visible after the animation on a software sim.

    Currently, when the animation of the pointer is complete, the pointer disappears. There should be a way to separate the animation from the arrow graphic on the timeline so you can have the pointer persist on the screen until the end of the slide. This would be particularly helpful if you have audio over a particular slide on a simulation that is describing movements. You could then sync the movement with where it is mentioning it in the audio clip, but have the arrow pointer continue to point to the place until the end of the clip.

  6. Editing Closed Captions

    When I paste in what I learn is too much text into the Closed Captions area for text-to-speech, I cannot CTRL+X the text I wish to remove. I was able to to do this in 12.5 or earlier.

  8. Accordion Widget formatting

    Accordion should also allow:
    - formatting the text inside the accordion tabs content, as now you can only apply presets, but not add bold or italic to the content
    - more than one tab open at the same time as an option, or all the tabs to be open altogether
    - copy and paste appearance of tabs
    - include the tab text in the states, so the text can have different colours in each state

  9. Adding an Accessibility Checker

    Having an integrated accessibility checker in the All New Adobe Captivate would be immensely beneficial for ensuring that content consistently meets accessibility standards. It would be nice receive actionable feedback based on key WCAG guidelines, allowing for the immediate identification of accessibility issues, similar to the features available in Adobe Acrobat, MS Word, and MS PowerPoint. If Adobe Captivate could implement this, it would be a game-changer, particularly in light of the new ADA Title II digital accessibility rule about to hit a lot of areas.

  11. Rearranging slides is not working

    When I try to drag a slide to a different position within the stack, it either snaps back to its original position or places it far up in the stack at a completely different position.

  12. Need to be able to scale video to fit slide. Basic 101.

    Unable to move the Video to the center of the slide and scale it. It does not scale, and it does not leave the top of the page, unless I add Top padding. But adding padding is not an option b/c it fills it black and it is unbalanced top and bottom. I can not delete the color behind the video.

  13. Simulation Blur Area Enhancements

    In software simulations where private information is consistently visible (ex: Financial Institutions, Healthcare Systems, etc.), it is difficult to make the sizing of blur areas consistent across slides in Assessment & Training Software Simulations. This could be distracting for end users, and doesn't enable the quality I'd like to deliver. Can you add the ability to copy/paste these blocks, input pixel measurements, or some kind of setting to allow the blur to appear on subsequent slides?

  14. Web Object: Add HTML5 Animations

    Please add the option to insert HTML5 web animations under Web Object Source: System. Like but not only Adobe Animate projects or GSAP, Hype or other jQuery/JS animative applications. These files could be embedded in OAM or ZIP archive format like it is possible in Classic Captivate. This idea is closely related to the need of a Library in the All-New-Captivate.

  15. Add support for smart quotes when typing text

    When typing quotes in Captivate 12.6, all single and double quotation marks appear as "straight quotes" or "typewriter quotes." Improve the readability and display of text typed directly into captivate by automatically converting these punctuation marks into “curly” quotes (also known as ‘smart’ quotes).

    While it is possible to insert the improved “smart” quotes by copying and pasting from a word processor (e.g., Microsoft Word), it is not always convenient to copy and paste text from another document when authoring a course directly in Captivate. Additionally, quoted text built into the software by default (for example: Select "Next" or press…

  18. Text block

    When long passages of text in a text block are included and you want to change or add something, the cursor jumps every time to the end of the text even though I clicked at the top. I then always have to scroll back up. The text should not jump every time I clicked inside or outside of the text block.

  19. web link video interactions

    When having a web link for a video and trying to interact with it it doesn't register, for example having a button disabled on Enter Slide and then enable it by the interaction "Objects Clicked" pointed at the video and that video is not a regular video but a web link video it doesn't work, needless to say that when using a regular video it does indeed work.

  20. Duplicating a slide with generated text-to-speech causes a hard crash

    If I have a slide that has generated text-to-speech, and then I try to duplicate the slide, I get a hard crash under Captivate 12.6.0.
