Export Captions: add slide number and/or label
The exported Word document has become even longer than in older versions due to all the multistate objects. The IDs in the first two columns have never made sense to me but in previous versions the last column indicated the slide number. Please add at least that number or if possible also the slide label. It is almost impossible at this moment to find specific items. The possibiliy to hide the superfluous states for buttons would be a great improvement as well. The document at this moment is not very friendly for localisation, which took many steps backwards also for…

User manual to be updated
Some confusing sentences:
At the start 'Launch Preferences' I see "On the toolbar, select Adobe Captivate > Preferences".. A menu is not a toolbar, and for WIndows users (still the majority) you find it under Edit, Preferences. BTW I logged the bug that the shortcut key is not working on an AZERTY keyboard, while the former SHIFT-F8 worked perfectly.
General Preferences, Default locations. It is no longer 'Publish at' but 'Location'. Due to the confusion for many users and problems in the past, a warning message should appear to avoid using the same folder for both and about not using…

Bring back object styles.
Being able to apply universal changes across a large quantity of objects across all slides was one of the big reasons why I prefer Captivate 2019 to Storyline. This saves me so much time and I can use this for future trainings made for the same company.

Allow multiple textboxes within groups
Often designers want bullet points or small blocks of text to appear as they are spoken in the narration, so you might want 5-10 short pieces of text appearing at different points on a slide. It's extremely common. I don't see a way to do that on a single slide since you're limited to one text element. THe only way would be for them to be stacked and have virtually 10 slides worth of material for the user to scroll down through as the narration progresses, requiring extremely active scrolling along with the narration - which will NEVER happen. This…

Transfer value system variable to user variable
It seems not to be possible to transfer the value of a system variable to a user variable, at least I have been trying without success. I want to show partial results of a quiz in a custom results slide (the default results slide has no Enter event). This means that I need to transfer the score obtained so far (Quiz.Score) to a user variable. There is a action Assign variable to variable but I am not able to indicate the quizzing system variable.

Increase processing speed
I have found the application to be very slow in processing clicks. I am finding that I need to click or double click multiple times to get the application to respond. I am on a corporate network, not a dial-up, so I know it's not on my end.

Responsive behavior for Background Image
Allow a 'focal point' for images when they change sizes in Captivate projects
Sharepoint pages do allow you to set the 'focus' of an image for when the portal changes size, it lets the author have some control over how the item is shown to users without having a ton of options to configure each time.

When allowing for multiple attempts in drag and drop, provide a 'try again' caption.
Provide a ' try again ' caption when allowing for multiple attempts in drag and drop. Also when you have an initial attempt that is incorrect, provide the option to automatically reset the drag sources back to the original positions.

External user feedback
Just curious how I can share this project for reviews with external stakeholders. From my experience with Articulate 360; there are robust sharing features where the SME or other individuals can leave comments on the project. Is that feature available or in the development pipeline

Adjust dimensions of tabs manually
Currently the tabs automatically adjust their width or height depending on the content area. Especially with the tabs stacked on the side this can be quite annoying, as they change position when they adjust their size. It can also be quite ugly, design-wise. I would like to be able to set a fixed height on the tabs.

Certificate download file size and missing "save as" option
The "Download" button saves a file with fixed name "captivate-certificate-[n].pdf" with an index n.
1. ICan the user please be prompted with a system dialog to save with a file name and to a location of his/her choice?
2. The PDF contains a rasterized image of poor quality (see text sample attached) but astonishing size (~5 MB). Can the file please be configured to be as small as possible, with a printable text quality as fitting for a respectable certificate?1 vote -

More than one checkbox
I'm not sure why the Checkbox interaction only allows for one checkbox. It would be helpful not to add another block for additional checkboxes. Instead, selecting the number of checkboxes I wish to include in the block would be helpful, similar to how I would do it with radio buttons.
