Resize hotspots in new Captivate
Ability to resize hotspots is essential for hotspot widget as hotspot sizes will vary depending on the image being used in the widget. So, please add the feature to the new Captivate version.
Thank you!

Out of tries message on results slide
The results slide only shows feedback for success or failure. Since you can limit the number of attempts a student can try the quiz, I would like to have an Out of Tries type message that would be triggered when the student has used up their attempts and failed the last attempt at the quiz. This way, I can write something like please see your supervisor for the next steps. I have a workaround, but I always prefer Adobe Captivate to have the built-in functionality. It makes development much more effortless. Here is the workaround: https://youtu.be/6Z-bU8DXlu4

Save Button
I would like to suggest a save button be physically present on the toolbar to make saving easy but also as a reminder to users to press it frequently.
33 votesHi All,
We are considering autosave feature. We already have ctrl+s to save the project.
Please let me know in case autosave feature will be more feasible rather than having save button on the top.

Allow DIVs
As of now, you can select blocks that have two columns for text or an image on one side and text on the other....Just as in wordpress, you should allow DIVs to create columns or rows so we can divide a page into sections and then put whatever elements we want into each section. This is perfectly responsive and is used in a lot of web page development. It would give immeasurably more creativity for design!

Duplicate conditions in interaction
When creating an interaction I often need multiple conditional decisions (only THEN) to cope with different situations. Often those dedicions are similar. Captivate Classic allows to duplicate a decision, and edit it. Example: I want to add an end slide to a quiz which is available in two languages. Multistate objects are used for a character and two texts, and there are 4 possible situations: Pass+language1, Fail+language1, Pass+language2, Fail+language2. That means 4 decisions in the interaction which are very similar. I cannot find out how to duplicate the decisions. Result: I have to do the same workflow 4 times from…

Find and Replace
Like in previous versions of Adobe Captivate, a search for text and the ability to replace that text would be an essential feature in this application.

Restrict Navigation until Slide End
Many stakeholders request that navigation be turned off until the slide/audio completes, i.e., forced navigation. In order to accomplish this currently, I have to either create my own navigation buttons or hide the playbar upon slide enter and show it at the end of the slide. The latter option isn't feasible because users can no longer toggle closed caption on/off while audio is playing. Both workaround options are time consuming.
I propose adding a feature that allows the developer to disable only the forward button (not the entire playbar) until the slide audio completes.

automatic captions
Generate captions automatically for audio narration just like in Premiere Pro. I'd prefer to edit the typos than have to MANUALLY type every work of the narration. This is so tedious and minor changes often require re-timing the captions several times during a project.
Please talk to each other inside Adobe and figure out how to do this in Captivate. Thank you!

Rearranging states - change default state
I would like to be able to rearrange the sequence of the states, or have a copy/paste possibility. At this moment only the duplicate (CTRL-D) is available but the duplicates cannot be moved. Since I have a touch screen I would prefer to be able to use the touch feature, but can live with using the mouse or trackpad as well.
Moreover it would be great to be able to choose another default state than the first one created. I solve that at this moment by using an interaction triggered by the On Enter slide event, but since there are…4 votes -
Better Typography - Web fonts - options/weights
I only see a handful of google fonts as options and no Typekit fonts in captivate 12. It is missing big ones like Open Sans, Robot and Inter.
Allow us to use these or add our own custom web fonts.
System fonts do not include all weights and styles available.
While all other adobe apps support using alternative characters, Capitvate does not. You all have been one of the leaders in implementing web font technology and features, what happened?

Add ability to restrict the 'drag card' area so it is NOT MOVEABLE
Currently the user can move the area for the options all over the screen and OFF the screen, meaning if they accidentally move it it can cause them to get stuck in the activity unable to complete the activity.

Allow custom Buttons in UI Theme to flow to a text button changed to an arrow button
Currently, in a custom theme's UI components text "buttons" with corporate colors (each state) do not flow to icon buttons (forward / backward arrows) Only the default color scheme flows to the arrow buttons. When producing content for multiple languages, text buttons are not suitable. Arrow buttons should inherit the theme colors of text buttons from UI Components.

Fix inconsistent functionality of widgets on Apple products.
My Apple users who participate in courses I have built in Captivate experience inconsistent results when navigating widgets and using buttons. Specifically, exit buttons don't close the course, and flip cards delay the action so users end up clicking multiple times and the widget acts erratically.

Flip Cards need to allow rearranging of order
The flip card widget needs to allow the user to drag cards to rearrange the order. I am having to rebuild the page, when I should be able to grab one card in my row of 3 and reposition it.

Tell us what the expected dimensions (min and max) are for image boxes so we can plan our graphics accordingly.
I have tried adding stock images from various sources to the image boxes and invariably, they're the wrong size, which is causing me to have to perform extra work to get them sized accordingly.

ProjectLockTOC not functional
That system variable used to be able to block all navigation by TOC. However when assigning the value True to it, the learner is still allowed to navigate to any slide.
