  2. 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.

  3. 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…

  4. Usage Variables

    Please, restore the possibility to see if and where user variables are used in a project. This is very important, als partially due to a bug created a while ago that variables sometimes get duplicated without any warning about the reason, and they get of course a number added to their name in that process to keep the uniqueness of the names. It is now really a clunky workflow to try to find out why the variable was created and which one is used where.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  8. Three Outcomes for Quiz Results Slides

    Presently there are two possible Review Area results messages, however there are three possible results of some quizzes.
    1. You passed
    2. You failed
    3. You ran out of tries

    It would be nice to have the third Review Area message available when a set number of tries have been set in the Interactions Section of the Results slide.

    I have a client right now who wants this configuration but it requires a custom solution on my part.

  9. Bug - Cannot Add Slide Video Block

  10. Character Speech Card Shape - Does not adhere to timeline settings.

    I am trying to mimic an ongoing conversation between two characters. When I move the character speech card on the timeline to show at a specific point in the audio, the text shows at the correct point, but the speech shape shows the entire time. I tried to get past this by using show/hide settings in bookmarks, but because I am using multiple blocks on the slide and show/hide the content blocks, when I show the block, then hide the speech card, it shows on the slide for a brief moment then hides. It looks messy. If, I when I…

  11. Add the ability to animate multiple images and objects in the same space.

    In Captivate Classic, you are able to animate an image and then animate multiple items beside or on top of the original image. This does not appear to be possible in the new Captivate. Most of our slides built in Captivate Classic contain animations times with narration. We do not want to lose the ability to animate in this way in the new version of Captivate.

  14. Dark Mode for App UI

    Please provide an option to change Captivate's UI between a light and dark mode. When wroking with dark slides, the brightness of the UI makes seeing details in the slides very difficult without previewing the project, thus increasing the time required to create content.

  16. different boxes not only up til down - but also from left to right

    Hi, normally you can add elements which are from top til down.
    But sometimes it is helpful for design issues when we can put elements (pictures, texts, buttons, graphics) from left to right.

    So there is more flexibility in designing the slide.
    Thanks

  18. Add A "Set Focus" option to Button Actions

    If I do a validation check on a text box when the user clicks a "Continue" button I created, and the validation I have setup fails, I want to set focus back on to my text box, however there is no option to do that.

  19. buttons stacked?

    It's nice to have 10 buttons in one block now in Cp 12.4, but why can't I stack them vertically? If I want several buttons underneath each other, I still have to add one block per one button. Very time consuming and unnecessary.

  20. Align text and button horizontally

    I'm not sure if it's a bug, but I've been trying to get a line of text and a button aligned horizontally (text with button NEXT to it, NOT underneath). It's impossible. Even with a design template that shows horizontal alignment (see screenshot) - it just doesn't work. This is really frustrating; it's such a simple thing but impossible in Cp 12 (I have the latest 12.4).
