Software Simulation: Instructions Box, unable to Change States
Bug: When doing the software simulation, the instructions box does not show any states. When I preview: it has a hint box but I can't change anything on there. I want to be able to remove it.

Font bug: When simply changing a default font Georgia from a text and image block to "Lato" font, the software crashes. The font can be used in any other Adobe applications so not sure why Captivate crashes with such a simple task.

Dedicated Description Location option
I would like a dedicated location where all the timeline callouts appear in the same location. There are times when the callout blocks out the other hotspots, when the callout appears. I often times have a location on the image that is clear and would like that all callouts appear there since they close each other out.
Ultimately I would like to manually move the callouts to where ever I feel is the most appropriate location.

Bug: Center alignment and movement of tab widget
In version 12.4, the Tabs Widget does not remain center-aligned when published. Even though the widget appears centered during editing, it shifts position upon preview and publish. Additionally, when the browser window is resized, the tab widget moves erratically instead of maintaining its centered placement. This affects the visual consistency and usability of the project.
Attached is a short video and image showing the issue.
Requesting a fix so the Tabs Widget can maintain proper center alignment on initial load and when resizing the browser window.1 vote -
Allow the Timeline to be moved away from the stage to make screen management easier.
In previous versions of Captivate, I was able to grab the timeline and place it anywhere I wanted on my monitors. I could then see the stage and timeline all at once. It was much more efficient.

Allow more than 6 images in an image grid
It'd be great if we could add more than 6 images to an image grid. The ability to add an infinite number to a single grid would be helpful.

Add the ability to navigate to a component on a single slide or on another slide.
You should be able to set an interaction so that by clicking on a button, image or other object like text, you can navigate to another component on a slide.
This is vital for slides that have scrolling so that you can click a button to navigate to a point further down (or up) the slide.2 votes -
Widget Bug
I've spent hours rebuilding the same slide several times. I've replaced the backgrounds on the cards with images. I reach a certain point in creating overlays etc - then get an error message in the browser on preview saying "Something Went Wrong." Then, I have to start over. I've wasted so much time, and I'm realising The All New Captivate is full of glitches and bugs! Please help.

make textbox in Overlay of Click-To-Reveal widget adjustable in size instead of adding scrollbars..
When adding text to the textbox in the overlay of the "click to reveal" widget, the system adds scrollbars. it would be more convenient and user friendly if the textbox could be adjusted in size. Also in proportion to the whole overlay container.

Improve question slides
I want to request a small but significant improvement to the question slides. My current client would like me to use the AI voices for the feedback captions as well. I can do this by creating a temporary blank slide, generating the audio, exporting it, and then importing the audio into the caption on the question slide. It would be great if I could access the text-to-speech window directly from the audio section of the caption, as it would save me a lot of steps. Also, if the submit button could be programmed to pause the slide, it would effectively…

Make active slide easier to see
Currently, on the Slide navigator, the outline or highlight that tells you which slide you are working on (active slide) is too thin and difficult to see. PLEASE MAKE IT EASIER to see the active slide on the list by applying a thicker bright color border around the active slide. See my attachment.

Bring back the markup/editing tools in the new Captivate for iOS.
I create elearning and I need all the boxes and arrows and text boxes that have disappeared from v12.5. I can't even HIDE a slide after I've recorded something in this version. If those tools are not coming back, please let us know. I will need to cancel my subscription and move to another creation tool.

Export Project Content and Closed Captions for Localization of Simulations
I attempted to export Project Content and Closed Captions for a Training Simulation only to get a document file that contained only generic fields but non of my actual instruction or feedback caption content. If this is error I would like to know how to correct this. If this has not been developed for version 12 then I would like to report this as a bug. I have attached the exported word document.

Auto update
Implement an option to select auto update the All New Adobe Captivate. I didn't even know the software was not updating automatically and that I need to check for updates manually.

Add Title components to character blocks
It would be nice to be able to add a title to the character block in order to keep a unified background. Currently, I have to add a text block above the character block which means an independent background.

be able to copy paste from another project
In 2019 Captivate, you can copy/paste an entire slide or section of slides from one project to another. You don't seem to have this option in the new version. The clipboard doesn't seem to work across projects. This would be very helpful.

unique feedback for each answer in multiple choice
I would like to have the ability to select different feedback captions depending on which multiple-choice answer was selected. This will make the feedback caption less generic and provide an opportunity to teach or reinforce during assessments as well.

In All New Captivate - Simulation created should publish as scalable. Currently not scalable or responsive.
With Captivate 12.5.0.35 Simulations created are not publishing scalable and are non responsive. Please make scalable publishing available (as in Classic).
