allow text boxes to be resized
text boxes are fixed width and cannot be resized to accommodate for other objects or portions of an image. this is completely restrictive. even text boxes that are inserted manually (vs choosing one of the very fixed slide templates) cannot be resized.

TOC Editor Needs Serious Improvement
Changes aren't always saved. Random groups get added. Expanding a group sometimes duplicates it in the TOC. If you have a large image on the first slide, the TOC structure gets compressed in the editor window so nothing can be changed. The window won't resize, the only option seems to be to close the TOC editor window and restart the whole project.

Ability to adjust size of a button
Right now, the only way to adjust the width of a button is by adding spaces to the text. It would be much better to be able to define a width, possibly a similar way the Alignment and Spacing of a block is handled. Also the space between buttons should be adjustable.

Missing options in UI elements in Theme
When setting up a Theme, all options which are available individually on slides should be available in the setup for a custom Theme. Here are two examples where I could't find how to do a full setup, both for Quiz slides:
1. Radio buttons: you can only set up the Normal state, not the other states needed in quiz slides (Hover, Selected, Disabled (selected), Disabled. Moreover it is not possible to change the border width.
2. Checkboxes: similar to the radio buttons, only the fill color and the border color of the Normal state can be set up.There are…

All animations are buggy
When using animations for text options, they are extremely buggy. On a 15 slide training about 10% of the animations caused text to just not show up when looking at it with local preview. When the animations were removed, it worked fine. Sometimes animations would make a slide not even appear. It seems to be consistent with multiple animations.
Also when using animations, sometimes all the elements will show as the slide loads for a quick frame and then disapear. When not using animations this does not seem to happen.
When animation bulleted text with spaces between the bullets, the…

make preview match what I see in Captivate
When I am creating slides in Captivate and go to preview them, often what I see on the preview is different than what i see on the main Captivate screen. This is extremely frustrating. See attached pics. Why are they different?

Click box interaction
I really miss smart shapes and being able to put click boxes wherever I want on slides that are 'regular' slides, not software sim slides. For instance, if you have a map and want to make parts of the map clickable.
Hotspots are OK , you can change the opacity to 0 and have an invisible area to click... but I can't add an action to it to do something like take a user to another slide.
As a workaround I use a software simulation slide and change the background image. Then I add click boxes for the areas I…

Retain items for whole project
In Captivate classic we could insert items (like a navigation toolbar) on one slide and display it for every slide thereafter in the project. Please include that option in this version.

Simulation highlight boxes in theme editor
It would be very helpful to have simulation elements design properties be added to the theme editor so that they do not need to be manually changed in each project. I believe this was a feature in Captivate classic.

Knowledge check slide icon
I really miss the little icon that would display in the filmstrip under knowledge check slides. It was great to be able to tell at a glance which question slides were KCs and which were graded. I feel like I have to go to each slide and check in the property inspector now, which takes more time.

Importing OAMs
Due to the 'renewed' terminology the word Animation is now used for the former Effects. However you'll never have the power of real animation tools in Captivate. I used to import OAMs created in Animate, and animated GIFs created either in Photoshop or in Animate. Please give use that feature back!

ai text to speech
It would be awesome to add an AI text to speech generator. There are some other independent sites for this (mostly paid), and the quality is far superior to normal text to speech.

add layering text on top of images and images on top of text.
I wanted to layer text on top of an image but for the text be more formatted to the right of the image. Even with the workaround and padding, I cannot get my text to the far right of the image.
