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.

Allow the Timeline to be moved away from the stage to make screen management easier.
In previous versions of Captivate, I was able to grab the timeline and place it anywhere I wanted on my monitors. I could then see the stage and timeline all at once. It was much more efficient.

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.

Allow text / caption boxes to be placed on top of other objects on the screen, like in Captivate Classic.
It would be great to be able to place text boxes on top of video or image elements like we could in Classic. This helps call out specific things in a demo.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Interaction Report
Create a report like in Classic that shows a list of all the objects and the interactions setup on each type of object by slide throughout the project.

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 timeline1 vote -
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.

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…

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!

Allow videos to be split across multiple slides.
One of the main reasons we use Captivate is to allow LMS bookmarking in videos. We spread the video over multiple Captivate slides, so that it will return users more or less to where they left off. Our LMS doesn't do this. The new Cp no longer allows us to do this, so we continue using the old Cp.

Play head on timeline always jumps to the right side.
When I want something to appear on the stage and in sync with the audio I use the timeline. However every time I play the time line it jumps to the far right and makes it difficult to see the time and when I want a paragraph to appear on the stage. If the play head is in the middle of the timeline and I press play it should play from the middle of the timeline. But it immediately jumps to the far right and then makes everything difficult to time things on the stage. All other applications I have…

allow text boxes to be resized
text boxes are fixed width and cannot be resized to accommodate for other objects or portions of an image. this is completely restrictive. even text boxes that are inserted manually (vs choosing one of the very fixed slide templates) cannot be resized.
