  3. Right click on block and select move to reposition

    Sometimes, selecting and moving blocks to other positions is challenging, especially when you want to move a block to the end of a slide. It would be helpful to right-click on an empty area of a block, select Move, and then use the keyboard cursor arrows to move a block up or down.

  4. Character block not displaying characters as expected

    I used the character block with the standard design option. Added my own images and the result when previewed isn't what it looked like in design mode. I would love to know what I've done wrong.

  5. Poses missing from Asset Library

    I went to add some characters to a conversation block today and found that while I could select the character, there were no poses to select from the asset window.

  6. Deprecation of JavaScript "unload" event

    we have received the following notice from one of our partners:

    I am reaching out regarding the upcoming deprecation of the JavaScript “unload” event in Chromium-based browsers, including Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge. This change is expected to be fully enforced by Q2 2025 and may impact the functionality of SCORM content hosted on our platform. As part of this deprecation, content that relies on the "unload" event for bookmarking, course completion, or other interactions may no longer function as expected. To prevent any disruption, we kindly request that you review and update your content to replace the unload event…

  7. Adobe Stock

    Adobe Stock should be embedded into the application instead of having to download the image and upload via assets.

  9. add the ability to add audio to widgets/tabs or custom interactions to their buttons

    widgets do not allow different audio on different tabs or custom interactions when the buttons are pressed. Example: a carousel with steps on different tabs should play audio for step 1 when viewing step 1, on clicking step 2, i want to hear audio for step 2 and so on. For hotspot buttons, young learners, should be able to hear the name of each part separately when they click on the different parts. on click interaction for hotspot buttons, carousel, and all widgets will make them more usable.

  10. Add the ability to animate multiple images and objects in the same space.

    In Captivate Classic, you are able to animate an image and then animate multiple items beside or on top of the original image. This does not appear to be possible in the new Captivate. Most of our slides built in Captivate Classic contain animations times with narration. We do not want to lose the ability to animate in this way in the new version of Captivate.

  11. Would like an option to re-scale project image resolution after they have been recorded.

    For example if the simulation was recorded with Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution I'd like the option to save it as HD (1280 x 720) so that it fits within my RoboHelp topic frame.

  12. Create a java script or interaction that will rewind audio. When attaching audio to a slide, the learner cannot rewind the audio.

    Currently, it is possible to use JavaScript to create a button to rewind video files within the captivate project, however, there is no similar functionality available for audio files attached to slides. This limitation impacts the learner's ability to revisit specific parts of the audio content.

    I recommend adding an option under the interactions section or as part of the timeline settings that enables users to rewind audio attached to a slide. This feature could allow creators to configure rewind increments of 5, 10, and/or 15 seconds(or provide custom intervals). This functionality would make it easier to review the content…

  14. Buttons are not taking the correct Breakpoints for responsiveness

    I created a quiz with multiple choice questions. Uploaded it to the Adobe ALM. Tested it in Safari on an ipad PRO and the buttons are not displaying properly in landscape mode.

  15. Slide Navigator Bug

    The slide navigator in version 12.5 incorrectly shows half slides. To reproduce, I select a slide, go to audio and add an AI text to Speech with the Timeline showing. Then, I attempt to update the button on the timeline to show for the entire slide. Upon returning from this action the slide view shows only half the slide and a blank areas where the timeline shows. If you scroll the the slides up and down, the slides will correct themselves. See the screen shot with items in red. Other slides in purple look fine because I have not added…

  16. TOC - Drag & Drop operation not working properly

    The drag and drop features are not working correctly in the TOC. This is happening in 12.4 & 12.5. Create a larger project. Try dragging and dropping TOC items from the bottom of the TOC list to the top. The scroll does not work properly. If you scroll using the mouse wheel, the item you are trying to drop is lost from the drag operation. It seems you can only drop an item a few entries or else it drops in a random place or back in it's original position within the list.

  17. 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.

  18. Navigation by TOC

    In all previous versions it was possible to control navigation by TOC. You could either choose to allow free navigation or navigation to visited slides. That very important feature which even could be an alternative for resume a session when not having access to a LMS (within limits with cookies) is completely lost.

  19. Check for update

    In Adobe Captivate, the only way to check the version and/or see if there is an update is to create a new project; or open a new project. It would be nice to be able to do the same in the home screen.

  20. Two buttons but showing three in interaction properties inspector

    One of my slides has two buttons on the display, but three are showing in the interactions properties inspector. This seems like a bug to me. When I try to interact with this mystery button, Captivate crashes.
