Hot keys for Radio Buttons
When you do incorporate hot keys, it is vital that hotkeys are available for radio buttons to use the keyboard to select A, B, C, D on question slides, which was not available in Captivate Classic.

Bug: You can add a button to the paragraph card but you cannot assign an action to it.
If you select the paragraph card from the timeline in the tabs widget you get the option add a button. I thought this would be a good solution to not being able to see the image in the widget large enough, i could at least add a button that opens a version of the image in a new window. However, while you can format the button like normal, you cannot select the interactions menu to assign it to do anything. So it's just a dead button.

BUG - font is stripped when sub or super script is used.
When I choose to make a character (letter or number) a super or sub script, the font removes all capitalization. Doesn't seem right...

Correct flicker when using effects.
Currently when you apply an entrance effect (ie. EaseIn Left or EaseIn Right) to an object in Adobe Captivate the object displays in the final position for a split second before beginning the effect.
The desired outcome is to not see the object until the effect begins to fade the object in. If the effect begins at the 0 second mark on the timeline and the effect fades and eases in left, you shouldn't see it until it begins to fade in.
This issue occurs when viewing the project in HTML 5.3 votes -
Hand tool
The typical Adobe Hand tool is available in the new version of Captivate, however it is invisible. Using the space bar (similar to Photoshop and other Adobe tools) you can use it to navigate. It is much easier than the tiny scrollbars.
But its icon button is never visible. Why? How do you expect new users to learn about this tool?1 vote -
Bug: Time ruler disappears on long slides
On any long slide, typical for slide video, the project will always open with the timeline panel at maximum zoom. In that case the ticks on the time ruler simply disappear and are replaced by an emoticon. To get the ruler back, it is necessary to custom zoom.
BTW I tried to upload a cpt project to illustrate what I explained but that is not possible.1 vote -
Make zoom optional
When you hover over a card, it automatically zooms in. If you've used a headshot image, it's odd that it zooms in on their face. Zoom in on hover should be optional

Allow streaming from Wistia in addition to YouTube and Vimeo.
Allow streaming from other video hosting sites. We use Wistia and Articulate will allow an embed from any streaming service. I prefer captivate but we do a lot of video clips and embedding them into the trainings directly make the trainings huge.

incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.
We use the Synthesia.io tool to generate videos which we then incorporate into Captivate.
Synthesia.io allows you to share videos directly from their site, without going through Youtube or Vimeo. However, Captivate cannot incorporate videos from sites other than Youtube or Vimeo.
We would like to be able to incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.1 vote -
Click-to-reveal-widget: Overlay should cover the entire slide
If you click on a card using the click-to-reveal widget, the content is overlaid by a grey area on which the overlay with its components is then located. However, the grey area only covers the area of the widget block. It would be nice if this grey area covers all blocks or even the entire slide so that only the overlay is active.

FOR THIS FEEDBACK WEBSITE - why do I need additional credentials?
I have all admin rights in the Global Admin Console and Admin Console, I suggest you to link those accounts to this portal. Also do I need one account for each "uservoice" product?
Adding an Other category and a category for Global Admin Console and Admin Console will also make sure to classify those requests better instead of getting lost under other products

FOR GLOBAL ADMIN CONSOLE AND ADMIN CONSOLE - Manage group administrators
Managing administrators in both Global Admin Console and Admin Console it is just a pain.
We can sync groups and you have the false impression that you can use the everywhere, where for Admins they have to be added manually in a list in the UI.I understand from your support that there are different layers of admins for product, but having separate groups for all or them it's also an option.
I'm not sure about other companies, but for the ones that just have a couple of people responsible for licenses and Adobe management they have all the admin…

Bug_Active Adobe fonts not available in Captivate 12 but were in 2019
I designed templates in Captivate Classic with Georgia Pro and Sans Source Pro typefaces and using specific Semibold and Regular font style.
I've verified that the fonts are active in my account on Adobe.com, in Captivate 12 I only have access to Georgia (and only Bold, no semibold) and no Source Sans Pro at all, only Source Sans 3, italic.
Is there something specific I should do in the setup to make sure all the brand fonts are there?

Please can you make Adobe Captivate 2023 compatible for Linux as it is more secure than Windows. Many people have moved across to Linux.
Please can you make Adobe Captivate 2023 compatible for Linux as it is more secure than Windows. Many people have moved across to Linux. They don't use Windows anymore. I have Linux and Windows now because I don't have a choice as the Adobe website only offers installations for Windows and Mac. Linux is a lot more secure, please please implement

Quizzing Preferences
There is still a category Quizzing under Preferences. However some of the preferences have been moved to the Properties panel of the Results slide: Attempts on quiz level, Pass/Fail actions etc... They used to be in the Quizzing Preferences under Pass/Fail.
However you can build a 'Quiz' by using only scored objects (formerly labeled as Custom questions). In that case the Results slide is NOT added automatically and you don't have access to its Properties. It would be better to move Pass/Fail again to Quiz Preferences.3 votes -
Shortcut key Preferences
BUG: the shortcut key to open Preferences is CTRL-,
That shortcut key is NOT functional on any other keyboard than the US keyboard. Why not get back to the original shortcut key which always worked in previous versions: SHIFT-F8.
Using a punctuation mark in a shortcut key is always a bad idea, because its location is not fixed, depends on keyboard.
BTW I use an AZERTY keyboard, thanks for fixing the beta bug CTRL-Z.3 votes -
Collapse Playbar Icon in assets
It would be useful to have the collapse icon (from the playbar) in the asset library along with a bigger variety of icons to choose from.

More support for 'Hide during publish'
I wanted to have an object NOT show when the slide was first displayed. You can 'Hide during publish' some items like buttons, but not others like Media blocks. As others have noted, if you use a Slide Enter trigger to hide an object, it is still shown before it is hidden, making that slide enter triggers unusable
