  3. Captivate 12.3 Quiz Proceeding Error

    Captivate 12.3.0.12
    Quiz Proceeding Error -- I'm using branching in my project, and when completing a quiz question, the caption appears, and then the slide gets stuck and does not proceed. I've tried so many ways to troubleshoot this without avail. Please advise!

    Quiz settings:

    Graded
    Unlimited attempts
    On success, trigger is Click/tap > go to slide ____ and adjust variable +1

    I'm using Chrome, additionally I've tested this in edge and both browsers are up to date. The same error is occurring in my LMS for multiple users.

    If I delete the quiz question causing an error, the same…

  4. Video demo has no Control panel on Timeline

    Captivate Classic, Video Demo editor lost a lot of features. When switching to the editor, Timeline is no longer activated by default. You need to open it using the Window menu.
    Moreover the control panel at the bottom of the Timeline, where you had tiny buttons for navigation, for trimming, splitting, add panning/zooming points, switch to mouse points editing has completely disappeared. It makes working with Video Demo a real pain.
    Play/pause still is sometimes functional using the playbar, but that is not consistent (same as New Captivate). But for all other functionalities which were at the fingertips in previus…

  7. Partial correct caption

    When creating a MCQ with multiple correct answers, there are issues. If some answers are correct, but not all sometimes the feedback 'You need to answer' appears, there is no state for partially correct feedback and I cannot detect how to create it.

  8. Control(Command)/Shift Select

    If I have many blocks or slides I need to select to either copy or delete, I cannot control/command or shift select them to delete them all at once. With the slowness of the software (once you have thirty or more slides filled with blocks), this becomes a painstakingly slow task. It would be helpful to be able to select multiple slides or blocks at once.

  10. Audio in Hotspot widget to play when hotspot is clicked

    If you allow to add audio to the callouts, whether to the image or the text, this would be a simple but very useful enhancement.

  11. Restore Control Movie variables

    The Control Movie variables were the ones I used most of all system variables and they are completely gone. This is a big step backwards. Even for the very simple Boolean ones (CC, TOC hide/show)..

  12. Copy/Paste Appearance

    It is impossible at this moment to use copy/Paste appearance from a normal button style to the Submit button on a quiz/score slide. Allow this please, instead of having to repeat the styling for each slide.

  14. increase the volume for recording audio

    When recording audio in Classic Captivate I have the opportunity to calibrate and can see my volume changing with the volume of my laptop.

    When recording audio in the New Captivate, while I can calibrate my volume, I don't see any difference on the calibration screen when I change my input volume from my laptop.

    The result in the New Captivate is that the audio is too quiet. I then have to go to each slide, individually, and reset the audio to best input in order to hear it. While it's a hassle to update each slide, the bigger problem…

  15. cpInfoElapsedTimeMS and cpInfoEpochMS, back please

    These two system variables (their original name) have been taken out. Those were the variables I have used so many times when timing was important in multiple situations. I already got questions on social media where these variables could be used to time something based on a duration. It could probably be solved without these variables in some situations if at least dynamic bookmarks were available.

  18. User Guide: confusing info

    In the User Guide, section TOC/playbar this is written:
    "Select TOC and playbar in the LEFT TOOLBAR-"
    However that button is at the bottom RIGHT on top of the Project Properties.

  19. Icon on Carousel widget needs more customization and has bugs

    The carousel widget allows you to change the arrow icon shape, but it does not have all of the customization that the svg icons typically have (such as in the buttons). For instance, I wanted to test out something other than an arrow, but when I went back to the arrow, I couldn't flip it. This meant that my arrow was pointed in the wrong direction. I could not fix it without deleting the whole carousel and starting over. Additionally, my client wanted the button much bigger, but that is not possible.

    Additionally, I tried to use my own svg…

  20. Add functionality to the New Captivate to export a single MP3 file from multiple slides

    The previous version of Captivate allowed for a single MP3 file to be exported from multiple slides, each w/ individual MP3 files (i.e., "podcast"-like file). Is this on the radar for New Captivate? It's my primary use case and very disappointing that it's not available.
