  2. Fix The Voices in the Latest Version of Captivate

    Chat support had me do CleanPreferencesMac, but that didn't work. It told me to my only option was to post here and just hope I could get some help at some point. Luckily I'm not on a deadline with this project!

    The latest update has been a huge step backwards in terms of quality of the voices (I went through about a dozen), and the interface itself for many reasons:

    1. Some of the old AI voices aren't there anymore, which is not good when you are in the middle of a project (Jessica Anne in particular).
    2. The delivery sounds more…

  3. ai text to speech

    It would be awesome to add an AI text to speech generator. There are some other independent sites for this (mostly paid), and the quality is far superior to normal text to speech.

  5. 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!!!

  6. Library

    We need a library so that I can see all my assets in my project, including what I add. That way I can see what is used the most and what images are a large file size, that may need to be reduced for playability.

  7. Add completion status for click-to-reveal for slide interactions

    . . . so that a slide interaction on a slide that has the click-to-reveal widget can depend on whether all the cards in the widget have been click.

    This is because the forward and back buttons are much more prominent than the "X" in the top right of the revealed card. Users don't see the "X" and mistakenly click on the back button instead trying to return to the front of the card. If you have completion status for the click-to-reveal widget, those buttons could be hidden until the user has clicked on all the cards.

  8. Reinstate Timing panel for component animation

    Using the drag feature on the timeline to stagger entrances is not user-friendly at all. I'd really like to see the same usability we have in Classic, where you select a component and can fine-tune both the timing and animation in the same panel. These functions are linked 90% of the time, so there's no reason why you should have to go to different panels to design animation and component timing.

  9. Web Object: Better utilization of available vertical space

    I'm very grateful about the fact that with the 12.5 update the Web Object came back to Captivate. But there is an odd issue with the layout of web object blocks. They don't use the optimal vertical space within a slide layout. See the attached screenshot. Here the web object occupies only around 65% of the available vertical space between header and footer. Even if under ALIGNMENT AND SPACING Padding Top and Padding Bottom are set to 0px and Autofit Height is checked. Can that be optimized in future releases?

  10. Fix inconsistent audio playback on the initial slides in Published courses

    Often when I access a published course via the web, the audio on the first few slides does not play automatically. I need to advance and return to the previous slide to trigger the audio playback. This is not an ideal solution for learners.

    I've tried adding title slides with no audio ahead of the first slide (expecting it would allow time to buffer and play the audio) to no avail. I've also tried positioning the audio to start at 1-2s after the slide has loaded with similar results. It might work to add a silent title slide with a…

  12. Open closed caption editor by double clicking on closed caption

    I want to go directly to the the closed caption editor, with the text and cursor in editing mode, by double clicking on the closed captions on the slide. Rather than going to the slide audio button and clicking the edit button.

  15. Text formatting is off after importing translated caption and closed caption word file

    The import of translated caption and closed caption word file is not helping my purpose, as the font size, color and formatting are going off. Especially if I have a text box with two words in two different font size/style/color.

  17. Grouping

    I want the ability to group select multiple media blocks to quickly move or cut and paste to a different location. I tend to lose my place when transitioning between slides when cutting content from one slide to the next.

  20. Please add Advanced Interaction

    I use it to check items included in the quiz and all the URLs. It would be great if there was a window where you could see all the URLs associated with buttons, links, and actions. You could also update the URLs in that window. I spend many hours every year checking and updating URLs in my projects.

    If Adobe could have a URL forwarder for Captivate that we could use to maintain URLs outside of the LMS, it would be even better. I know that I can pay for a service like this, but it is cost prohibitive.
