  1. Fix Buggy Animations

    On an SVG object, I chose to apply an exit animation going to the right. It played correctly when scrubbing through the timeline and when clicking Test. When I previewed in the browser, the object slides off to the left (the opposite direction).
    I also applied an entrance animation to three SVG objects. I used the scale in option and I adjusted them to scale in one at a time on the timeline. This played as anticipated in the timeline. When I previewed in the browser, only the first two scaled in. The third popped in without animation.

  2. Drag and Drop Widget doesn't calculate score properly when added to reporting.

    The scoring for the Drag and Drop widget doesn't get properly added to the scores from other questions. Most of the time it adds a 0 even if you answer the question properly. Sometimes it adds a 1 regardless of what you enter. I have had to leave these questions out of the scoring totals for consistent results.

  6. Hover state Image on quiz slide

    Great that you can use images as answers. But something is wrong with the Hover state of those images. I dsiabled that state but it appears automatically after selection of an answer and submitting that answer, even if not hovering over the image. Even i manage to change the colors of the Hover state to be the same as in the Default state, the original Hover state will appear after submitting.

  9. Speech Management / Agent: Is it possible to have Australian accent as well?

    Currently, only options available are limited (after installing) additional captivate voices. Even the windows language packs are not picked, up by Captivate.

    So not much choice, as we have either American/British VO.

  10. Allow us to change the underline color of a link

    When I linked some text, a light pink/purple line displayed under the linked text. I did not find where to change that color on the properties, nor the theme. Pinky/Purple is not one of our brand colors.

  11. Allow for no images on flipcards widget

    Allow for no images on flipcards widget. Currently, you can get rid of the images but the depth doesn't adjust accordingly, leaving the text anchored to the bottom of deep cards that can't be adjusted.

  12. Quiz Slide Enter trigger: restore please!

    In all previous versions it was possible to use the On Enter event of a quiz slide as trigger. Not the On Exit, because that functionality was taken over by the Success/Last Attempt actions.
    I use this event all the time in Captivate Classic. It is even more needed in the new version, due to the many required workarounds. One example:
    I have answered already multiple times the request to get rid of the feedback messages in the New version on quiz slides. It is a lot of trouble compared with Captivate Classic, by making the states in the multistate…

  14. Highlight Fill Outer Area

    The ability to fill the outer area of a highlight to draw specific attention to something on the software simulation screen. This was so useful in Captivate Classic. In our software simulations, we like to point out things to users on screen and this is the best way to do that.

  16. Text to speech panel open when moving from slide to slide

    I've been entering many slides of text to speech and I have to open the text to speech panel for each time I navigate to another slide. To me it would make sense if the software would keep a panel open until I select to display another.

    Quiz Proceeding Error -- I'm using branching in my project, and when completing a quiz question, the caption appears, and then the slide gets stuck and does not proceed. I've tried so many ways to troubleshoot this without avail. Please advise!

    Unlimited attempts
    On success, trigger is Click/tap > go to slide ____ and adjust variable +1

    I'm using Chrome, additionally I've tested this in edge and both browsers are up to date. The same error is occurring in my LMS for multiple users.

    If I delete the quiz question causing an error, the same…

  18. Video demo has no Control panel on Timeline

    Captivate Classic, Video Demo editor lost a lot of features. When switching to the editor, Timeline is no longer activated by default. You need to open it using the Window menu.
    Moreover the control panel at the bottom of the Timeline, where you had tiny buttons for navigation, for trimming, splitting, add panning/zooming points, switch to mouse points editing has completely disappeared. It makes working with Video Demo a real pain.
    Play/pause still is sometimes functional using the playbar, but that is not consistent (same as New Captivate). But for all other functionalities which were at the fingertips in previus…

  19. Allow for more editing on overlays and make scroll bars always visible

    With the overlays, the text box for the body is very small. It'd be nice if we could adjust the size of the box.

    Also, being that the scroll bar is not visible, even on hover over, learners may not know there is additional content. There should be an option to make the scroll bar always visible.

  20. Buttons in widget slides (bugs)

    When I select an option in the DESIGN OPTIONS for a timeline slide, the button don't get "pill" shape, instead it gets the "circle" shape.

    When I try to apply a linear gradient, I have little to no control on the direction of the gradient.

    Even if I manage to apply the style, it seems I can't apply it automatically to all the other buttons.

    Also, if I'm required to add more custom buttons, could you please give the possibility to replace them with .SVG AND allowing us changing the size? We can hardly read the icons in the actual…
