  1. Bug: Web Links are not working on a text block

    Create a text block. Enter a web link in the properties. After clicking off the text box and clicking back, your web link is gone. If you enter a web link and don't click off the text box, clicking preview produces no links.

  2. Objects click on widgets

    One thing that I would love to see is that when using a widget, 'Objects clicked' could be used on the elements to control bespoke designed navigation buttons.

    For instance, on the flipcard widget, it would be great to select each flipcard under 'Objects clicked' to control a NEXT button design purposely.

  4. Preview without the device icons at the top

    A viewer of my YouTube channel suggested this idea, and I think it might be beneficial. Could we have an option to preview a project truly as it would be published, i.e., without the device preview icons at the top of the page? We certainly can resize our browsers to simulate what different devices might look like. Perhaps the icons have outlived their usefulness, or perhaps this is an option that can be turned on or off in the preferences window.

  6. Allow the Project.CurrentSlideNumber var to be Adjusted or assigned for branching

    Our courses require users to jump to certain sections and we would like to be able to adjust the Slide # to the section they are viewing - Each section starting at 1.

  8. All animations are buggy

    When using animations for text options, they are extremely buggy. On a 15 slide training about 10% of the animations caused text to just not show up when looking at it with local preview. When the animations were removed, it worked fine. Sometimes animations would make a slide not even appear. It seems to be consistent with multiple animations.

    Also when using animations, sometimes all the elements will show as the slide loads for a quick frame and then disapear. When not using animations this does not seem to happen.

    When animation bulleted text with spaces between the bullets, the…

  9. Add an image to the Question stem

    I can't believe there in no option to have an image as part of the question stem. You can add them to the answers but that is not what I want.

    Adobe Stock should be embedded into the application instead of having to download the image and upload via assets.

  12. Bug: Captivate crashes when modifying files in import file dialogue box

    I am experiencing a bug in Adobe Captivate 12.5. When importing files, for example, when adding an image to a new media block, I have noticed that if I add, delete, or copy-paste a file within the import file dialogue box, Adobe Captivate freezes and must be closed from task manager. Upon attempting one of those file modifications, Captivate freezes and becomes unresponsive. I am unable to finish importing the file, choose a different file, close the dialogue box, close the project, save the project, or take any other action within Captivate.

    While it is obviously not a smart idea…

  15. Would like an option to re-scale project image resolution after they have been recorded.

    For example if the simulation was recorded with Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution I'd like the option to save it as HD (1280 x 720) so that it fits within my RoboHelp topic frame.

  16. Create a java script or interaction that will rewind audio. When attaching audio to a slide, the learner cannot rewind the audio.

    Currently, it is possible to use JavaScript to create a button to rewind video files within the captivate project, however, there is no similar functionality available for audio files attached to slides. This limitation impacts the learner's ability to revisit specific parts of the audio content.

    I recommend adding an option under the interactions section or as part of the timeline settings that enables users to rewind audio attached to a slide. This feature could allow creators to configure rewind increments of 5, 10, and/or 15 seconds(or provide custom intervals). This functionality would make it easier to review the content…

  17. Create non-responsive projects

    My organization has decided against responsive design. They actively discourage people from using non-desktop computer devices to complete training (concern about employees doing it outside of working hours). The new Captivate leaves us in a bind. We need to be able to design static non-responsive projects as we have always done in previous versions of Captivate.

    We will likely never switch until this is restored in the product. If it doesn't come before Cp Classic EOL, we will need to find an alternative product.

  18. Navigation by TOC

    In all previous versions it was possible to control navigation by TOC. You could either choose to allow free navigation or navigation to visited slides. That very important feature which even could be an alternative for resume a session when not having access to a LMS (within limits with cookies) is completely lost.

  19. Offer a new speech agent option of Paul Wilson's voice (Adobe Captivate Virtual Training instructor)

    Offer a new speech agent option of Paul Wilson's voice (Adobe Captivate Virtual Training instructor). His voice is very easy to listen to! A lot of the text to speech voices are very robotic sounding.

  20. Allow Highlight box on image slides

    I have screen shot images in which I want to point out items using a highlight but there is no option if you are using a slide with an image. This seems only possible on a simulation slide. Same with hover box or or button. I can only add a button at the bottom using the widget, but I can't overlay an interaction on my screen shot.
