  3. Bug - Short Answer question slide is broken if you include a quotation symbol " in your answer

    I had a short answer question where the answer was "1"=20'" and I kept getting a "Something Went Wong" error. After recreating the question several time, I eventually started going one character at a time to see if there was an issue with the answer. As soon as I removed the quote symbol the question began to function as intended.

  4. make an easy way to make input fields mandatory and be resizable in width

    Been trying to make the input fields mandatory before the learner can click on the next button, I have tried lots of different conditions as not empty, not equal to _null (setting this variable to another empty field) before it shows the next button nothing has worked so far. I have managed to go around and use the click object option before the learner can see the button but this is not ideal.

    Also I don't see the need of a large input field that goes from one side to the other of the page but instead it would be…

  7. Apply theme to all course elements

    Some widgets/elements have icons or states that do not use the custom theme. They seem to use the colors from the default Light theme but should be using the custom theme applied to the project. See attachments showing the default blue instead of my custom theme.

  10. Bug: when replacing video by shorter video, slide duration is not adapting

    Using Slide video as only (media) object on a slide. On adding a video, timeline of the slide will get same duration as the video. However when replacing the video by a shorter video, the slide timeline will not adapt, keeps its original lenght. I am on version 12.2.
    BTW trimming a video leads to same problem, but causes lot more issues, learned to use Rush for trimming now.

  11. Bug: Content width of widgets not adjustable

    Some of the widgets cannot be adjusted in terms of the content width. If I use for example the tabs widget (Design Option), the width is preset to 92%. When I change the width for example to 80% the changes are adopted to the widget on the slide. But if change the slide an come back, the widget is agein displayed in 92% although the width value is set to 80%

    The card widget (Verticle, bottom text) behaves the same.

  12. Languages for text to speech, windows language support.

    In Classic Captivate its possible to add text to speech support for languages supported from Microsoft Windows own (local) library. That feature would be much needed i guess for a lot of people, and could be considered a quick fix for massive language support instead of having a Captive Voices implementation.

  14. Animation on a block

    It would be a time saver to be able to add an animation to a block. For now, only components of a block can have animation.

    For example, if a block have a background, the block can't be animated.

  15. Images on blocks do not have same properties as background images on slides (or image media block)

    When setting an image for the background appearance of a block, you lose the ability to set transparency, blur, brightness and contrast.
    1. Add an Introduction Slide
    2. Click on the Introduction block in the slide
    3. Expand the Appearance section in the properties panel
    4. Click the arrow next to Solid Fill and select 'Image'
    5. Import any image (from system or assets)
    RESULT: No ability to set transparency, blur or brightness and contrast
    EXPECTED: Ability to set transparency, blur, brightness and contrast

  16. Have more standard timeline interface

    Make timeline behave like timeline in Premiere and every other professional application with a timeline. Current timeline is more inline with amature consumer applications like ClipChamp. Only easier to use for people unexperienced users. For professionals it is hard to understand, time consuming, mouse heavy, and extremely non-intuititve.

  18. Add GIF as a supported filetype for Image Background on the slide

    If you use a media block, GIF files are listed in the filetypes dropdown. However, if you use 'Image background' for the slide, GIF files are not listed in the filetypes dropdown. If you manually enter the path to a GIF, they import as expected.

    The matching interaction in the file provided is not "scored" and any interactions in slides that appear after that slide will not work.

  20. Bug - Shortcut to move blocks

    It would be helpful to move bocks with the arrow up and down. As a default shortcut, it could be Alt+UP and ALT+Down. The drag and drop feature is not always efficient.
