  2. Bug: horizontal button position offset in export and preview

    It is a regular bug in all exports and previews. The button position inside a media block has an horizontal offset. It looks ok in the live view in Captivate Charm.

  4. Keep drop-down areas open unless I close them

    In the Properties area, there can be many drop-down menus I'm trying to view when viewing Appearance or Interactions. Sometimes I need to switch between these to view a setting for an object, and I'll have just opened a drop-down menu. Then, it's closed when I come back to it. I've found that it would be much more user friendly to have these drop-down areas stay open once I've opened them even if I navigate to something else in Captivate. Then, it would be my responsibility to close them if I don't wan to view them any longer. For example,…

  7. Bug_Active Adobe fonts not available in Captivate 12 but were in 2019

    I designed templates in Captivate Classic with Georgia Pro and Sans Source Pro typefaces and using specific Semibold and Regular font style.

    I've verified that the fonts are active in my account on Adobe.com, in Captivate 12 I only have access to Georgia (and only Bold, no semibold) and no Source Sans Pro at all, only Source Sans 3, italic.

    Is there something specific I should do in the setup to make sure all the brand fonts are there?

  8. Add GIF as a supported filetype for Image Background on the slide

    If you use a media block, GIF files are listed in the filetypes dropdown. However, if you use 'Image background' for the slide, GIF files are not listed in the filetypes dropdown. If you manually enter the path to a GIF, they import as expected.

  9. Selection of states in interactions can overlap with other states

    I've noticed that when selecting states in the interaction panel, sometimes the states will overlap with one another making it difficult if not impossible to choose the state you wish your interaction to display. Displaying the multiple states will usually correct this but I had to do this a number of times before discovering this.

  12. Make the new software available for those with a Feature Restricted License

    My company currently has FRLs until 2025 and when I asked our IT Team to download the all-new software, it's not actually available on an FRL just yet. Feels a bit unfair to say that if you've got a license you can get the new software when actually there's some small-print involved if you've got an FRL. Would love for FRL to be available for the all-new software so we can take advantage of it - feels like we're missing out.

  13. Need to do a menu

    To be able to create a menu that allows me to navigate to any slide within the presentation. Additionally, I'd like to incorporate buttons that provide the ability to jump to a specific slide, giving me the flexibility to position these buttons anywhere on the slide.

  14. UI for assigning actions to radio button component is abysmal. You can't tell which option triggers which set of actions

    At the slide level you can see which option is triggering the actions, but once you get into the component itself there is no distinction between the options except for a faint line.

  16. Bug - using arrow keys removes text

    When using the arrow keys to update text in a Software Simulation text box, any text entered disappears and goes back to the default 'Type instruction here' message. Seems this is just prior to saving and only using up and down keys.

  18. Edit transitions on Quiz buttons

    For some reason when you select the submit button on a quiz you cannot edit the interaction to set up a transition. Well, at least not directly. I found that if you select the button and click back to one of your main slides and then select the interactions panel, when you return to the quiz, the interaction panel for the quiz button is open and you can edit it. You can then keep moving to the next slide and editing each one. This seems like a weird gatekeep for no reason, you should just be able to edit the…

  20. Bug: Captivate chrashes when selecting the feedback of a clickbox in simulation mode

    After recording a simulation, I wanted to format the feedback via status. Evertime I select the text in the feedeback and then click on "Text" in the properties (yellow marker, Bug1), Captivate chrashes (Bug2).

    This always happens - both in existing and new projects.
