have a way to share .cpt files between users (on the same VIP sharing package) that can sync so updates show to all users in real time.
Like Creative Cloud or OneDrive or Google Drive but for Captivate projects, so changes are automatically saved and available for other users when they open the file.

Issues with multiple languages
To translate a course the new version has lost a lot of features which were available in CP2019:
1. In CP2019 all used labels in Quizzes could be edited under the Quiz Preferences. Not only the Default labels, but also the Messages on the Score slide. Now some labels need to be translated using the Properties panel of the score slide.
2. I hope the Export/Import of Prefrences will once be restored and will have all those labels, not only those in the reduced Preferences in New Captivate, A modern application, should even do this automatically.
3. When CSV import…1 vote -
Button States not updating - Even on publish
As the title says - Button states wont update even on publish. The file reflects the changes to the button state, but the publish is showing old text and wont reflect the actual change that's in the file

widget
We had created a series of free Widgets (Captivate Classic terminology - not related to widgets in Captivate). The Captivate Classic widget functionality was great, because it allowed us to create a custom UI and include JS to the published file. Our widgets are here: https://envolvemedia.com/custom-applications/#captivate
A simple example is the Save As Widget. The Captivate developer could use their own button instance that when clicked would just save the contents of that slide to a PDF or Image on the end-users machine.
Captivate [New] doesn't allow for these widgets. Even creating a "Custom Design" does not support setting custom…

Allow customizing scrollbar
The scrollbar on the side when something is taller than the standard window size is very hard to see and users may not recognize that it's there. Allow customization of this to make it stand out.
On the same vein, allow buttons that scroll to a fixed anchor on the slide if you want to be able to jump down

animation triggered by the scroll position
Like in Elementor, it would be nice to have an animation triggerd by the scoll position. It would help keep the learners engage.

Bug - Title text being cut off
Text is being cut off in the title. The text looks normal on the stage, and I have plenty of padding above and below the text, but hanging parts of text like the tails of a y or g are getting cut off inexplicably and I cannot fix it.

Add 360 image/video support to the new Captivate
360 image/video capabilities have become increasingly more important for me to create 360 tour walkthroughs for team members that are not near physical locations. It is the next best thing to being there.

Add extra actions to the widgets
When you add a tab widget it would be nice to be able to add our own actions to the buttons, this would allow us to add our own custom validation or extra text to appear after all tabs have been seen.
I would expect the actions to make the widget would be locked but we could add extra.
Another example would be to use the flip card widget as a way to create a knowledge check or show images if certain combinations are selected.

Localisation quiz
There has not been any improvement to the localisation of quiz and score slides, on the contrary. Translation of the Default labels still has to be done manually which is weird for a new app in this world of AI. Moreover since you cannot export the Preferences, Default labels anymore, you have to repeat that translation for each project.
The Press 'Y' in the second step of the submit process should also be translated automatically when creating a project in another language than the language of Captivate.
In a modern application I would expect a choice for the project language…1 vote -
Vimeo video and caption controls not available.
Embedded video from Vimeo using the video object has no controls. I'd rather not enforce the user to have to sit through the whole video again when returning to a slide to make a different choice. I'd also like them to have the option see the captions already uploaded and managed in Vimeo.

Allow overlay images (ie. click to reveal) expand to the whole overlay if there's no text element.
At the moment, if there's no text element the image still remains small. If there's no text element, it should expand to take up the whole overlay.

Keep Classic & Call this Something Else
I've been using this software since 2006 and I'm in shock at how many critical features are missing in this version of the software. I'm not even sure how you can call this Captivate. Providing feedback here is is basically adding to the list of features we need that were already available in the Classic version. We need software that is not focused on responsive design. Keep Classic and call this something else.

Support for Captivate on MacOS Sonoma
It's about time to get Captivate ready for the MacOS 14 Sonoma. In the Syestem Requirements it still says: "Note: Captivate isn't yet supported on Sonoma."

I just started testing the updated Captivate Classic. Why was the Preview next 5 slides removed?
In the updated Captivate Classic, the Prevew next 5 Slides option is no longer in the Preview drop-down. Why was that removed? If I have 100 slides and I want to check the timings on slides 90-95, I don't want to preview the entire project and try to guess where to click to start my preview. I can't preview just one slide at a time if I am checking the timings when switching from one slide to another.

Bug - duplicating a slide with shortcut CTRL+D
I get an error while duplicationg a slide with several widgets and media objects (just pictures + text and just one short own made quiz, no videos) by pressing CTRL+D on keyboard (Windows OS, Charm Version EN 12.1.0.16).
Duplicating using mouse right click works.

Export/Import Preferences
There are no longer Global Preferences, which you could set from the Welcome screen in Captivate Classic. That is already very bad, but not being able to export a set of Preferences and import it in a new project is really CRITICAL for localisation. I always had a set of Preferences for French, Dutch, Italian, German ready to import if I needed to have Quizzing labels in that particular language. This is more important than missing the spell control for those languages.
