  6. Background images

    It would be great if the images in the background had parallax functionality or at the very least was fixed while scrolling.

  8. Remove credentialless ="true"> from HTML code in publish for Cp 13

    Web objects from inside our organization do not work because we set a cookie to authenticate and Captivate 13 embeds an HTML code 'credentialless ="true" which prevents the cookie for authentication. This was not a problem in Captivate Classic. We imbed a lot of video from both our enterprise streaming service and our LCMS but are now not able to do so with Cp 13. Please resolve!!

  9. Group Objects Together

    Can you allow us to group objects together and name that group to help with multi-action interactions, please? Sometimes we need to show or hide a group of objects at once and it would save time to just reference the group instead of all of the objects in that group. Thank you for your time and consideration!

  10. Ensure font consistency based on Theme Editor; ensure consistent "fall-back" fonts

    If a user does not have fonts listed in the theme editor, the fall-back font use appears inconsistent. For example, two boxes on the same slide may both be selected as Heading 6 but appear as two completely different fonts to the viewer.

    Even when using basic fonts available to all users, some learners see a different font than I see in the preview and published modes. Fonts are, at time, inconsistent to what I have in the preset fonts for the module.

    Ensuring font consistency is crucial to the deployment of a professionally streamlined product.

  11. allow free movement of blocks

    The interface using a fixed block-based layout is awful. Jumping through hoops just to design a slide with a video where I want it and a text box next to it.

  12. Slide video sometimes restarts the video

    I have several slides with slide video blocks, each of which displays a different MP4 video file. The project is hosted on a web server, not an LMS. I noticed that when I updated the videos, and re-uploaded the project to the web server, the videos would often spontaneously restart anywhere from 3 to 10 seconds into the video. The problem was more pronounced after I cleared my browser (Edge) cache, and the restart problem seemed to go away after I ran the project a few times. This led me to believe it was related to how the slide video…

  13. Fix the PowerPoint Import

    I have a PowerPoint presentation with graphics, text that is bolded and/or italicized, and line drawings.

    When I have Captivate import the presentation, it absolutely WRECKS bold or italicized texts within a sentence, and makes line drawings unintelligible.

    I have used Captivate as my tool of choice for years.
    I sat on my Fortune 500 company's evaluation team when the "new and improved" Captivate came out.
    WE DROPPED CAPTIVATE FROM USE because of poor functionality.

    Now I have my own company and do work for clients. I am evaluating Captivate for several new projects -- but I am not seeing…

  14. Bug - Tabs Widget does not show correctly in preview

    When using the Tabs Widget in captivate all looks fine but in preview in Horizontal Mobile (only) all texts is cramped into the right side. When you remove the image element there is no such problem. It seems that the picture does not resize, therefore not space is left for the text. It is a shame because this widget has a lot of use cases in learning. See attached media. Any idea of fixes will be welcomed.

  15. Bug - Simulations - Typing Text discolouration

    In creating an OpenSearch simulation, I have noticed there is discolouration of certain elements (per attachment; it's an orange-brown overlay). Captivate never told me it was going to do it, nor did it ever let me control any aspect of it. And the only way to get rid of it is to get rid of Typing Text, making the whole thing moot.
    I'll use DaVinci Resolve to record a demo and forgo training and assessment because this is one more way the All-New Captivate is All Buggy.

  16. Visible Scrolling Options for Continuous Scroll Slides and/or Projects

    It is not inherent to all learners that they need to scroll down to view more with slides or projects that continue beyond the screen view.

    For projects and/or slides that require the use of scrolling to view the entire slide or project, add a visibility that indicates the learner will need to scroll down to view the rest of the slide. Either a customizable scroll bar and/or up/down arrows that appear and remain visible for directing the learner during the training. Make it accessible for screen readers and keyboard only users.

  17. 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

  18. Create the ability to insert videos to auto play and place and shrink wherever it's needed by the user

    Currently, if you want to insert a video, it creates a rectangular prison that doesnt allow the video to be moved (for me, I created an animation in Adobe express and uploaded it as an MP4 into Captivate- since it is an ADOBE product, it should be integrated into other adobe programs)

    It also doesnt allow for resizing beyond a certain size regardless if you undo auto.

  19. Create a image comparison slider widget

    Since you have created the like slider could you also create a image comparison slider widget like this

    https://cdn.knightlab.com/libs/juxtapose/latest/embed/index.html?uid=c112e11a-3120-11f1-ba1b-0e6f42328d7d

    I have been using sliders like this in the web object but it preforms really badly in the mobile view.

  20. Review rendering of transparent background images

    Transparent images in PNG or SVG format when used as background are showing a thin line like it was being tiled, even if the tile option is not selected.

    In the example attached, I have a simple SVG with an angled corner used as background, and on the bottom-right corner it displays a line of the same colour.

    The same happens with PNG images.
