1. Include the Captivate 2019 video playbar re-wind and forward function in Captivate 13.0

   Captivate 13.0 does not have video re-wind and forward functions. These functions are important for projects that require the learner to fully understand and confident in a process before moving on in the project. These missing functions are standard in video display

2. Make Images Exportable for External Editing

   I can't find a way to edit an image from Captivate in Illustrator or Photoshop. I am being handed a Captivate file and not always all of the source files used to create it. It'd be really helpful to have a right click and 'Edit in Photoshop' option for when the graphic file is not available. This function exists in other Adobe products, please add it to the new Captivate.

3. Course Time Calculation for Captivate 2023

   Course Time Calculation for Captivate 2023.

   Looking for a "Course Time Calculation" feature in the Preferences, similar to what Captivate Classic had. It showed you the approximate overall for the course of all the slides. Other than sitting with a stopwatch and take the course.

4. [Bug] Parent slide scrolls while overlay slide is active and scrolling

   Version: 13.0

   Problem:
   When an overlay slide is opened and the parent slide is taller than the viewport, both the parent slide and the overlay slide scroll simultaneously when the overlay content is scrolled. This causes the user to lose focus on the overlay and disrupts the intended user experience.

   Consequences:
   - Confusing focus shifts between the parent slide and the overlay slide
   - Weakened UX for dialogs and lightbox content
   - Accessibility issues, especially for keyboard navigation

   Suggestion:
   - The parent slide should not scroll while the overlay slide is active and being scrolled.
   - Only the overlay slide should scroll when its content exceeds the viewport height.
   - If the overlay slide is smaller than the viewport, no scrolling should occur.

6. Allow us to change the color of a text hyperlink

   In earlier updates I was able to manually change the color of clickable text links so that it matched my client's branding. It would be nice to have control over how these look, and it would be exceptional if the appearance of text hyperlinks was something we could add to the theme editor.

   Not sure what changed, but now I have to explain to my clients that this functionality was somehow removed, and we have to deal with ugly purple links instead of sticking to our brand colors.

7. Allow you to mute project audio on specific slides

   When I add background audio to the entire project I cannot stop it from playing on slides that have a video or video grid so you get the music and the video audio. The only way to get around this is to remove the background audio completely. Would be nice to add a feature in the audio tab on the slide to stop the music from playing entirely just on that slide.

8. I am unable to export text-to-speech audio from Captivate. This was a problem for us in Captivate 12 and continues to be a problem with 13

   I am unable to export text-to-speech audio from Captivate. This was a problem for us in Captivate 12 and continues to be a problem with 13. I attended the Adobe Learning Summit and spoke to the developers about it, but have not received a resolution.

9. [Bug] `textProps.fontWeight` is ignored during rendering

   Version: 13.0

   Problem:
   textProps values such as fontWeight set in designOption.json are displayed correctly in the Captivate UI, but are ignored in the final rendering and overridden by inline styles (e.g., font-weight: normal;). Other textProps (like textAlign) work as expected.

   {
     "tag": "slide-item-subtitle",
     "preset": "text-body-6",
     "customStyles": {
         "all": {}
     },
     "customProperties": {
         "alignmentAndSpacing": {},
         "textProps": {
             "fontWeight": "600",
             "textAlign": "center"
         }
     }
   },
   

   In the rendered output, inline styles appear such as:

   font-weight: normal;
   

   Impact:
   - Inconsistent results between editor preview and actual output
   - Paragraph styles cannot be reliably overridden
   - UI feedback is misleading (shows correct formatting, but renders incorrectly)

   Expected behavior:
   textProps should be respected during rendering and should not be overridden by generated inline styles.

10. [Feature] Grid and Visible Borders for Design Options

    Version: 13.0

    Problem:
    When working in Captivate, visual aids such as grids, borders, or width and height indicators are missing. Apart from the highlight shown when directly clicking a Design Option or on slide overflow, the positioning of elements is difficult to control – especially for complex layouts.

    Suggestion:
    - Visible borders for Design Options and their sub-elements, optionally toggleable.
    - Fully customizable background grid, similar to Adobe XD or Figma, for better layout orientation.
    - Display of width and height measurements for placed elements.

    The new Adobe Captivate version lacks the ability to restrict the video seekbar—a key feature for ensuring learner engagement and compliance in eLearning. In many training scenarios, it's important to prevent users from skipping ahead or fast-forwarding through video content. Ideally, the seekbar should be locked until the video has been watched completely. Once the video is fully viewed, users can then be allowed to fast-forward or rewind for review purposes. This functionality was available in Adobe Captivate Classic and is essential for maintaining the integrity of learning paths. Please consider adding this feature to the new version to support structured and effective video-based learning.

12. Certificate widget download takes a long time and truncates text in the certificate

    When you click the download icon for a certificate, it takes a suprisingly long time, with no visual feedback that anything is happening. The background image and text throughout the certificate is truncated. Other than using a screen capture tool, there is no way for the user to get a usable certificate. The certificate is also very large, at over 5 megabytes in size. Attached is the correct certificate (captured using SnagIt) and the annotated certificate that Captivate 12.6.0.63 currently provides.

13. [Bug] Design Option “Image” does not respond correctly to grid styling

    Version: 12.6

    Problem:
    The “Image” design option partially fails to respond to grid styling defined in the designOption.json. The element container-image-text does not occupy the designated grid-area because it is not a direct child of the container-image-card element where the grid is applied.

    In Chrome DevTools, it is visible that the instruction

    grid-area: 1 / 1 / span 1 / span 1;
    

    has no effect because the target element does not participate in the grid context.
    See screenshot: design-options_image-01.png

14. [Feature] Support for Character Styles for Inline Text

    Version: 13.0

    Problem:
    Currently, Captivate only supports paragraph-level formatting (Paragraph Styles). There is no way to define reusable character styles for quick and consistent inline emphasis. The existing “Highlight” inline element is too limited (no padding, margin, border, border-radius, etc.), leading to inconsistent workarounds and unnecessary manual inline formatting.

    Use Cases:
    - Highlighting key terms
    - Inline quotes / badges
    - Keyboard shortcuts / keycaps
    - Code snippets
    - Labels / status indicators

    Suggestion:
    Introduce freely definable character styles supporting:
    - color, background-color
    - font properties
    - padding, margin
    - border, border-radius

    Configurable in:
    - GUI (Theme-Editor)
    - theme.json

    Benefits:
    - consistent corporate branding via global styling
    - improved readability and learner orientation
    - reduced manual inline formatting
    - clearer emphasis of instructional key terms

15. [Feature] Option for image container to grow with text in the “Image” Design Option

    Version: 12.6

    Problem:
    Currently, the image in the "Image" Design Option does not grow when the text block container-image-text increases in height. There is no setting in either the Captivate GUI or the designOption.json to scale the image vertically along with its content.
    In responsive layouts (e.g., hero sections, split layouts), this leads to unbalanced designs, awkward proportions, and unnecessary whitespace.
    See screenshots design-options_image-02.png and design-options_image-03.png.

    Suggestion:
    Add an optional setting that allows the image to:
    - grow vertically with the text container
    - maintain its aspect ratio (e.g., via object-fit)
    - adapt responsively to varying content heights
    - optionally use a min-height to prevent layout collapse

    These options should be configurable both in the GUI and in the designOption.json.

    Note:
    The behavior should remain optional. In some layouts, a fixed height is still desired — ideally configurable separately for each device (Desktop, Tablet, Mobile).
    See screenshot design-options_image-04.png

16. [Feature] Custom layout slides with freely configurable Design Options

    Problem:
    New content slides can currently only be created based on predefined layout categories (e.g., Comparison, Meet the Team). Each layout only allows importing a fixed set of Design Options defined in its associated designOption.json. Additional components cannot be added, which makes layouts unnecessarily rigid and difficult to adapt to custom design requirements or corporate branding.

    Example:
    Meet the Team only allows paragraph and image-grid. Adding an additional paragraph beneath the grid is not possible.

    {
      "type": "Meet the Team",
      "name": "$$name",
      "description": "$$description",
      "designOptionId": "LAYOUTS_MEET_THE_TEAM",
      "isDefault": false,
      "version": "1.0",
      "thumbnail": "thumbnail.png",
      "styles": [
         {
          "tag": "paragraph",
          "designOptionId": "MTT_PARAGRAPH_OPTION_1"
        },
        {
          "tag": "image-grid",
          "designOptionId": "IMAGE_GRID_MTT_OPTION_1"
        }
      ]
    }
    

    Suggestion:
    Enable support for custom layout slides, where the corresponding designOption.json can contain any components the author needs. This would allow instructional designers to create rich, reusable layout templates for both slide-based content and longpages.

18. Allow content creators to import .doc or .pdf text to populate a template.

    If there were tags that could be placed into a word document that could call for a slide option in a project template, then the program could auto-populate text and images into predetermined slide options. This would allow for a rapid conversion to Captivate files when receiving only text, image and link content from authors.

    Many of our authors are accustomed to a particular set of procedures for content development. We need a simple method to take the content provided and convert it to a Captivate project.

    If there were <tag>s of some sort that could identify sections of text and their associated images and links to videos or other online content and then populate an appropriate slide template, that would be ideal. Tags could identify other design options as well, for example font style or shape colors or corner radius for buttons. Have a simple library of available tags. Then content creators who do not use Captivate can put in tags that would reduce the amount of time needed for the Captivate content team to fine tune the imported project.

    Ideally, they would also be able to tag specific variables and object names as well. Some of our LMS integration is dependent on button object names and custom variables. These variables could mostly be handled by a custom template though, if that were an option, which it absolutely should be. Then it would just be making sure that the doc or pdf had the appropriate tag for the custom slide template with the appropriate custom variable options.

    If there were tags that could be placed into a word document that could call for a slide option in a project template, then the program could auto-populate text and images into predetermined slide options. This would allow for a rapid conversion to Captivate files when receiving only text, image and link content from authors.

    Many of our authors are accustomed to a particular set of procedures for content development. We need a simple method to take the content provided and convert it to a Captivate project.

    If there were <tag>s of some sort that could identify sections of text… more

19. Variables and Design Options

    We all understand that Captivate 12 is "built around a template-based authoring approach, designed to streamline project creation with minimal effort." that's just great. And we all want a simple user interface for our content creators who are less technically savvy, which Captivate provides. That does not mean that the content administrators don't still need the ability to have custom templates with variables to integrate properly with their LMS (and in our case LRS). We have government mandated variable time requirements for slide dwell time and total lesson duration. We also have varying pass percentage requirements.

    There are a large number of exchanges that have to happen to make sure that a given user / registration is launched with the appropriate injected values. That means that the variable must be accurate. Those variable should not have to be recreated ever, they should be selectable, custom variables that are options for any new project if they are in the options folder.

    Currently, you have to copy a slide from a 'template project' somewhere on your computer. When you do that, with no apparent specific reason, Captivate creates a new variable. This, of course, breaks the logic and you must go through every slide with variables and make sure that a numerical suffix has not been added when pasting. There is no way to turn this off. Further, you cannot delete these ghost variables that end up being sometimes 50-100 randomly generated variables. You try to delete them, and even though those variables are used NOWHERE in the project, Captivate does not allow you to delete them. It is genuinely frustrating.

    The entire variable and design option architecture is pretty broken. It is 'clunky' at best. I dont even want to think about how many hours I have had to waste fixing logic errors in a program that is supposed to be "designed to streamline project creation with minimal effort."

    In our case, it has been anything but 'streamlined'

    Our dev team is throttled by the Captivate teams decision making process, it is not good.

    We want the simple interface and template, yes.

    We MUST have the ability to create our own custom templates complete with custom variables that do not create a 1000 ghosts.

20. [Feature] Option for automatic display of timeline events (without click)

    Problem:
    In the current Timeline widget, each event must be clicked manually for its associated content (text/image) to appear.
    This interaction pattern is not ideal for all learning scenarios — especially in linear or narrative timelines, repeated clicking can be distracting and offers little didactic value.

    Suggestion:
    Add an option in the Captivate GUI and in the designOption.json to control the behavior:
    - Manual (current behavior): The user clicks each event to reveal its content.
    - Automatic: The content is always visible.
    - For better user experience: The content appears with a smooth fade-in or motion animation when the event enters the viewport.
