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.

add a module for us to create a slide header/footer
for the usual logo/couple of links menu (in my case, Main Menu and Glossary) make it a module that the user can apply and not a required slide format. As it is, the 'image' module is useless for this purpose.

Combination characters in CSV replaced by Chinese characters
Dutch, like many other European languages has some combination characters. When I have the word 'creëren' in een CSV file, the two characters 'eë' after import are replaced by one chinese character. Too bad that I can't add a screenshot. I used Gill Sans as font. I am able to delete the chinese character, but there is no way to have the second ë with the double points on top appearing in any answer. This is a real important bug!

Change default formatting for objects
Unless I am missing something, there doesn't appear to be any way to change the default formatting for objects like Highlight boxes, Instruction boxes, etc. Or, to easily create multiple slides with consistant font formatting without manually choosing the same Preset (or custom preset). The Copy Appearance feature is not an acceptable replacement for that ability. I don't want to have to click dozens or hundreds of objects to copy formatting.

Add an Advanced Actions Description Field
Please add a description field to the Advanced Actions window, where we can type a brief description of what the advanced action does, expected outcomes, etc. This would be especially helpful when working in teams.

Custom Themes Prior to Recording Software Simulations
It would be amazing to be able to apply a theme prior to recording a Software Simulation to decrease the amount of editing that has to be done after the recording. Specifically, it would be helpful if the Instructions component color and font could either be defined prior to recording. And it would be thrilling if I could edit the Instructions component color and/or font AFTER recording and have the option to "Apply to all slides" like you can with the Mouse properties. Right now, the Instructions color and font have to be changed one slide at a time after…

Bug - Image Grid Text Overflow with Card Enabled
On the image grid design option "Image Grid Vertical C1" there is a bug when you enable the card component.
When the card is enabled, the text area for the caption and subtitle go past the boundary of the card. The issue persists at all content widths. If you make the content 100% wide and preview the slide, the text gets cut off.
If I add padding to the cards at 30px, it pushes the text back into bounds, but that doesn't fit with my other card designs.
If there is a way to adjust this in the JSON files…

It's easy to get stuck when using quiz slides in Captivate
When setting up question slides, it's easy to get stuck on that slide when users navigate back to a questions slide they already answered. There is no way to proceed.
Add a questoin slide. Turn off the skip options. Turn off the Playbar in quiz. Add any navigation to allow users to go back to the question slide. Preview. Answer the question. Return to the question slide. You are stuck there.
There are many reasons to turn off skip and playbar. But users are now stuck on a question slide they already answered.

Recording from within a project should have all three options for recording.
Currently recording simulation from within a project gives you radio buttons, therefore you can not record the demo, training, and assessment at the same time. This is useful if you have build up some knowledge slides then you wanted to add a software simulation as a demo and training for example.

Quiz TOC checkmarks depending on right/wrong answer
Previously, we used Adobe Presenter, where the TOC indicated by different symbols whether the answer to a quiz question was right or wrong.
In Captivate 12.3.0.12 (German version, Windows), the TOC displays a green "passed" checkmark if the slide has been seen, even if the recorded answer is wrong.
Please let checkmarks be configurable - or at least display an appropriate checkmark (red "x" or similar) for all quiz slides with a wrong answer.2 votes -

incorrect remediation sound missing from the asset library of sounds
put the old sounds from captivate 2019 into captivate 12. "electronic tink" sound file is also missing from the captivate 12 asset library compared to captivate 2019.
Also there is a bug on mac computer sonoma where sometimes when you go to asset and look through the sound choices in the asset library, they won't play. Also I can't see a way to add remediation sounds to the remediation states without doing it one by one for each quiz slide.

Insert Text Boxes
The software simulation of Captivate 2023 doesn't seem to have as many options as Captivate 2019 had. E.g., inserting a text on a screen when it doesn't create one for you. This would be a great feature as this can create issues when this needs to be added where it hasn't been captured. I'm surprised with the new version, some of the 2019 features haven't automatically been copied across. Wouldn't this have been easier and then improve some of the options

Allow video streaming support for Microsoft Stream
Microsoft Stream has full integration with the suite of Microsoft Products and Microsoft Sharepoint. This is an industry standard video service that we have utilized since using Captivate Classic. We would like to be able to link our videos directly from stream rather than create a Youtube or Vimeo account.
