Correct Help page
Help page is very confusing. There are some typos (like instead of link). It also indicates that you can add reporting to THE WIDGET whereas Reporting is only available for the components on the Overlays. The fact that Reporting is almost always past the bottom of the monitor and needs scrolling is not very helpful.

Reorder interactions
When I select a step in my interaction (Advanced Action) I cannot reorder this step to be the first of all my actions using either the drag and drop method or the reorder up button.

Allow W and H fields of Custom to actively change as you manually size an application window.
When recording a software simulation in CpC, the width (W) and height (H) fields in the Snap to: Custom Size option actively change when manually sizing the application window. This allows us to visually verify the size of the application window. In new Captivate, the W and H fields in the Size: Custom option remain static when sizing the application window. (Note: Due to an application / Citrix issue, we have to manually size our application windows when recording software simulations. Simply entering the dimensions in the W/H fields does not work.)

Multi Slide Synchronized Video
This is an issue with Classic Captivate that I discovered with a client. When I select a video that is set to span across several slides and edit the transition markers between slides, I cannot change the duration of each slide as I was able to in the past.

Allow for cropped views of cutout characters in Asset Store
I was using the single and two-character media blocks and realized that I could not select a cropped view of the characters like I could in previous versions of Adobe Captivate. I know I can crop these images after but this was a nice feature.

Ability to hover as a way to proceed on a slide
Ability to hover over an area on screen to proceed on a slide like you could before Flash went away for Adobe Captivate. This would only be for courses viewed on a desktop. Many simulations have hover actions.

Project Properties - Bug
I have noticed that the UI Components in Edit Theme will not allow me to select and change certain colors. I am unable to change button colors even if it is a preset color. Also, Edit Theme removes colors from my preset. All UI Components are experiencing issues customizing the colors.

Make the answer window moveable
When I am inputting and selecting answers while building a match the column slide, the window partially blocks the view of the slide, and I don't seem to be able to move it. It would be nice to be able to move it.

Make default quiz buttons picked up by focus area for keyboard accessibility
The default quiz buttons can be tabbed through with a keyboard, but after you turn the focus setting on, the focus area does not appear on the default quiz buttons-- this means to make a truly accessible quiz you have to use custom quiz buttons. Please fix this.

Bug - Captivate Classic 11.8.2.254 installs files in root of Adobe folder
Captivate Classic 11.8.2.254 files install to C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\ folder on Windows 10. Should install to "Adobe Captivate 2019 x64" subfolder. I installed 11.8.2.254 via the Captivate installer after running "Check for Updates" from the Help menu of the previous version. Installation was successful and 11.8.2.254 runs without any apparent issues. Performed the same update on another Win 10 laptop and it too had Captivate files installed to the C:\ProgramFiles\Adobe\ folder.

Custom Size: Page Properties/Layout
I understand the need for responsive design and I appreciate added features. With that said, please don't remove features. I would like to be able to control the layout size for desktops. When embedded in the LMS, a scroll bar appears so the learners can not see the buttons without scrolling. Please bring back custom sizing.

Keep drop-down areas open unless I close them
In the Properties area, there can be many drop-down menus I'm trying to view when viewing Appearance or Interactions. Sometimes I need to switch between these to view a setting for an object, and I'll have just opened a drop-down menu. Then, it's closed when I come back to it. I've found that it would be much more user friendly to have these drop-down areas stay open once I've opened them even if I navigate to something else in Captivate. Then, it would be my responsibility to close them if I don't wan to view them any longer. For example,…

Hot keys for Radio Buttons
When you do incorporate hot keys, it is vital that hotkeys are available for radio buttons to use the keyboard to select A, B, C, D on question slides, which was not available in Captivate Classic.

UI for assigning actions to radio button component is abysmal. You can't tell which option triggers which set of actions
At the slide level you can see which option is triggering the actions, but once you get into the component itself there is no distinction between the options except for a faint line.

Bug: You can add a button to the paragraph card but you cannot assign an action to it.
If you select the paragraph card from the timeline in the tabs widget you get the option add a button. I thought this would be a good solution to not being able to see the image in the widget large enough, i could at least add a button that opens a version of the image in a new window. However, while you can format the button like normal, you cannot select the interactions menu to assign it to do anything. So it's just a dead button.
