Tell us what the expected dimensions (min and max) are for image boxes so we can plan our graphics accordingly.
I have tried adding stock images from various sources to the image boxes and invariably, they're the wrong size, which is causing me to have to perform extra work to get them sized accordingly.

Open URL or File Incompatible with Share for Review
When I have buttons that open a PDF file using the Open URL or File action, my PDF isn't published with Share for Review. This adds steps to my Share for Review workflow that I prefer I would not have to do.

Ability to publish as MP4
Captivate Classic has the ability to publish as an MP4. It would be nice to retain that capability.

Change the color of the selected indicator on carousel widget
I am not able to change the selected color of the indicator on a carousel. I can change the unselected color, but the selected is always this blue. It would be great if I could change it according to my theme. Changing the theme colors had no effect.

allow more freedom of movement with highlight boxes and text boxes.
Having the ability to move highlight boxes and text boxes with keyboard arrows allows for more precise placement.

Allow customized carousel page styles to be copied or applied across all instances.
This would also apply to other widgets, but if you need to customize the overall appearance of the carousel slide pages, i.e.( colors, text, cards, borders, etc...) it is EXTREMELY annoying and time consuming to be forced to make the same changes over and over for each instance!
Therefore, I HIGHLY suggest adding a checkbox somewhere in the properties panel that applies your custom styles to ALL instances within the same widget. This would save so much extra production time!

Add Closed Captions to pop up and object audio.
Closed captions should be available to edit in bulk or easily in some way. There should also be a way to caption object and pop up sound to be fully 508 compliant.

It's easy to get stuck when using quiz slides in Captivate
When setting up question slides, it's easy to get stuck on that slide when users navigate back to a questions slide they already answered. There is no way to proceed.
Add a questoin slide. Turn off the skip options. Turn off the Playbar in quiz. Add any navigation to allow users to go back to the question slide. Preview. Answer the question. Return to the question slide. You are stuck there.
There are many reasons to turn off skip and playbar. But users are now stuck on a question slide they already answered.

Add ability to add additional text block to image block.
Currently you can only have a caption and subtitle on the image block. It would be helpful to be able to insert additional text blocks. This would allow for you to do things like adjust the timing of each text block for bullets with audio narration.

Merged Actions to be Default
I'm finding that as I write more and more actions almost always merge actions. Could you make merged the default and split would be an option?

Align slide directions with direction of step being taken
When a user click in the forward direction it makes sense to have a default slide direction with the next slide coming from the right. But when they click in the backwards direction, it is visually confusing to have a previous slide arrive from the same (future) direction.
Like turning pages in a book, going back should not look the same as going forward.7 votes -
Ability to drag the audio in and have a library you can reference it from
Not being able to import multiple slides of audio at once is really slowing our processes down. Please bring back the ability to import more than one file at once and to have a library where they can all be viewed at so that we can get rid of any extras that we don't need to decrease file sizes.

add a module for us to create a slide header/footer
for the usual logo/couple of links menu (in my case, Main Menu and Glossary) make it a module that the user can apply and not a required slide format. As it is, the 'image' module is useless for this purpose.

Forced navigation in any button
It would be nice if we could ensure that learners do not skip lessons to complete course and allow learners to navigate to the next slide, page, or content only after they finish interacting with all the sections in a button (not only in widget). I know it's available in widget, but it would be nice to add it to any button.

Multiple choice Multiple answers: checkboxes please
For a MCQ slides with multiple correct answers, I would expect checkboxes instead of radio buttons. This is a globally accepted way to clarify to the user that multiple answers may be selected. It is contrary to all protocols that this should be chosen.

ProjectLockTOC not functional
That system variable used to be able to block all navigation by TOC. However when assigning the value True to it, the learner is still allowed to navigate to any slide.

Allow to use different image types for buttons and widgets
I've noticed that only .SVG images can be used as assets for buttons and widgets such as the click to reveal widget. It would be a good idea to allows to use other file types like PNG for these assets. Normally, I just convert them to .SVG, but recently the LMS we use decided to no longer support images in .SVG format due to security reasons, so having other file type options would be very convenient.
