TOC Navigation Control Missing in New Adobe Captivate
Issue Summary:
In the new version of Adobe Captivate, Table of Contents (TOC) items are enabled from the beginning, allowing users to skip slides without completing them. This undermines the learning flow and defeats the purpose of structured eLearning.
Expected Behavior:
There should be an option or variable to disable TOC items initially, and enable each item only after the corresponding lesson or slide is completed.
Actual Behavior:All TOC items are accessible from the start.
Learners can skip ahead without engaging with the content.
No built-in setting or variable is available…3 votes -

Fix Captivate (new - 13.1) launch screen to be accessible at different text sizes.
I updated to 13.1 yesterday, hoping to be able to adjust the reading order in a classic project. Installed the new version and noticed that things didn't fit in the launch screen and were getting cut off. I clicked the Import button and selected the Captivate Classic option. The popup opened, but the image extended and was cut off at the bottom of the screen, and I was missing the Learn more link and the Continue button. There's no option to scroll or resize anything in the Launch screen, nor can you resize the launch screen itself. My colleague tried…

This new version is no where compare to Classic Captivate and now voted suggestion may take decade to be par with CPC
A new version should retain all the features of the old one while also introducing meaningful enhancements. However, the new CP still falls far short of CPC. The development team may not fully understand which CPC features users rely on, and some basic options have been removed entirely. For example, adding a simple text box now requires inserting an entire block, with limited editing options that are locked within a group. In addition, the new CP crashes too often. If every missing feature must go through a suggestion and voting process before the development team prioritizes it, it could take…

Publishing simulations as scalable HTML content in Captivate 13
Please reintroduce support for publishing simulations as scalable HTML content in Captivate 13.
The current limitations create accessibility concerns, negatively impact the learner experience, and introduce risks to training effectiveness. Simulation development represents approximately 99% of our Captivate use. Without scalable simulation content, it is difficult for us to fully adopt the new Captivate platform (which we are paying for). At the same time, Classic is becoming increasingly challenging to maintain and work with due to its age, installation issues, and compatibility limitations.1 vote -
BUG - when retaking failed quiz, learners get locked out if they exit SCORM and re-enter
When a learner fails the quiz, and presses the retake button, they are getting frozen out if they exit the lesson and re-enter. This does not happen on the first attempt - only when retaking. We've had multiple learners report this error and there is no way to fix it via the settings, it's a bug in Captivate.
To clarify, review mode is not enabled. The actual submit button is greyed out and changed to the disabled state. Please see image.

Change default state of the alignment and spacing panel
When clicking on visual properties the alignment and spacing panel is defaulted to closed. It should default to open or remember the state it was in when last used. At least until you ditch forced responsiveness which causes me to have to use this panel for every single object.

Make it easier to change AI-generated voiceover word pronunciation
I'm finding it difficult to get the text-to-speech to pronounce certain words correctly. Currently, I want it to say "lead" (the metal - rhymes with "bed"), but the AI-generated voice will only pronounce it "lead" (to guide, rhymes with "seed"). When I type in "led" to try and correct this, the voiceover spells it out (as in, "LED" light). Is there a way to adjust the pronunciation? If not, this would be a helpful feature.

Add options like Double click and Right click for the Click boxes in simulation.
I think what challenge we are facing now is, if I have added a Click Box manually to the simulation slide, it does not show options for Double click or Right click functionality. As I always reuse old simulation by just replacing screenshots, these click box functionality I need most. Currently in 13 version it only work with single left click for the Click boxes.
I am adding an image that show the options for UI if you are going to add these functionalities

[Captivate 13] Make widgets more useable, by treating them (and their components) as proper slide objects
Every Widget so far added to Captivate 13 has been a massive step back in terms of usability, customization and user-friendliness. It's like we traveled back in time to 15 years ago. Seriously, since 12.6+ Captivate felt like the worst way to do eLearning, everything is done in the worst, most obtuse way possible, and somehow we lost features that the software had since inception.
Right now, in Captivate 13, if you use a Widget, you're locked out of most actions/interactions/triggers that Captivate normally offers, because they are treated as entirely self-contained, separate feature. Objects within Widget do not qualify…

Include accent marks when typing directly on Cp
I've been trying to type in text with accent marks, and Cp won't display it. It'll display just the text without the marks. This is important for us designers who work a lot on courses that in languages other than English. In my case, I work a lot with Spanish, and it's just unacceptable to be typing the text on another tool (MS Word, notepad, etc) so I do the copying and pasting into Cp. Please, fix this ASAP.

Scalable HTML-5 publish setting for non-responsive projects
Currently, non-responsive projects in Captivate 13 do not have a publish setting (like Captivate Classic) for scalable HTML-5. This feature is very much needed as alot of your customers are still creating non-responsive projects with Captivate 13. This feature will also be needed when importing previous captivate classic non-responsive projects into Captivate 13 (feature is coming soon). Is a publish setting for scalable HTML-5 in the works already for non-responsive projects? If not this is a huge oversight and this feature needs to be incorporated as soon as possible.

Text Size Appears Incorrectly Upon Publishing in Mobile View
I'm using Adobe Captivate 13. Example scenario: On a slide I have two paragraph blocks with subheader and body text. In subheader the text should be 18 px and body text 16. I have the same specs for block 2. I also have auto layout turned on for both. In preview it looks fine. But upon publishing, my smartphone shows the subheader text is smaller than the body text. It's very time consuming to edit, publish, and test. This only seems to be an issue with smartphone screen sizes because making changes and publishing in desktop view, the output is…

During import, some Classic slides don't import or import with nothing on them.
During import, some Classic slides don't import or seemingly import with nothing on them. This is most likely due to unsupported objects on the Classic slides. It would be nice if at least a truly blank slide was created with the slide name of the "deleted" slides, so we know that we need to recreate that slide and can do so immediately. On empty imported slides that had unsupported objects, it appears that we cannot preview the lesson with these. In fact, when we try to edit the slide, the lesson often freezes and closes. So, the current fix is…

Alignment panel does not have any alignment options.
As the title says, the alignment and spacing panel does not actually show any alignment options. It only gives padding options.
