  1. Closed Captions Editing is Glitchy

    When working with closed captions, my cursor disappears and it is difficult to see where I am editing, if I am editing at all. I have to select all and click to get the cursor to show or to reposition it. After selecting all and clicking, I can use arrow keys to move it, but it no longer shows on screen.

  2. jose.dossantosjorge@launceston.tas.gov.au

    Fix a number of issues in the assets panel.

    1. A lot of Thumbnails for slide templates do not appear in the Assets panel, instead there's a "broken link" image. It is impossible to identify which template you are using.

    2. There's no indication of what kind of template they are. A title like "Title and Image" or "Character and text" or "Multiple Choice" would be useful to identify which template you need.

    3. There could be an option to increase the thumbnail size, to better choose what you need.

    4. The insert process is way too slow, even with a good internet connection.…

  3. add AI voice cloning option for updating legacy narration clips. My CP clients like my own voice and branding continuity is important.

    I use Eleven Labs but it would be much easier to add voice cloning into CP. Or, acquire Eleven Labs and integrate it into all of Adobe multimedia products!

  4. 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.

  6. Lost .cptx File After License Error and Reinstallation – Help Needed

    Even though my Adobe Captivate license was active, I received a license expiration error. A sales rep shared a reactivation link, which prompted a reinstall. I followed the process, including uninstalling the old version, installing the new one from Adobe’s site, and restarting my system.

    After this, I discovered my most recent .cptx project file—saved on June 12 with final changes—was missing. The only version left is from June 11, but the published output (dated June 12) reflects all the final edits.

    Adobe Support said the file can’t be recovered from the published version. This is frustrating, especially since it's…

  7. You should be able to adjust the settings of each device separately.

    You should be able to adjust all settings per device so you can ensure that designs looks good across all screens. I have found it pretty impossible to work with as it is at the moment.

    You should be able to adjust the settings of each device separately. It is really difficult to make it look good across all screens otherwise it is really difficult to make it look good across all devices. This is a pretty standard feature

  9. Splash Screen on Startup Covers Everything on My Computer

    In most other Adobe Apps, the splash screen on start up (the loading screen with artwork) will pop up, and I am able to look at other things on my computer while it's loading. For some reason, Captivate's splash screen is automatically layered on top of everything else on my computer, so I have to sit and wait for Captivate to slowly start before I can do anything.

    It would be great if the splash screen behaved the way it does in other Adobe Applications. Thanks!

  10. Add shapes and text boxes.

    We utilize shapes and text boxes frequently in Captivate Classic. These seem to be missing from the new version of Captivate.

  11. Allow more than 6 images in an image grid

    It'd be great if we could add more than 6 images to an image grid. The ability to add an infinite number to a single grid would be helpful.

  12. Fix The Voices in the Latest Version of Captivate

    Chat support had me do CleanPreferencesMac, but that didn't work. It told me to my only option was to post here and just hope I could get some help at some point. Luckily I'm not on a deadline with this project!

    The latest update has been a huge step backwards in terms of quality of the voices (I went through about a dozen), and the interface itself for many reasons:

    1. Some of the old AI voices aren't there anymore, which is not good when you are in the middle of a project (Jessica Anne in particular).
    2. The delivery sounds more…

  13. Allow text / caption boxes to be placed on top of other objects on the screen, like in Captivate Classic.

    It would be great to be able to place text boxes on top of video or image elements like we could in Classic. This helps call out specific things in a demo.

  14. 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.

  16. Add completion status for click-to-reveal for slide interactions

    . . . so that a slide interaction on a slide that has the click-to-reveal widget can depend on whether all the cards in the widget have been click.

    This is because the forward and back buttons are much more prominent than the "X" in the top right of the revealed card. Users don't see the "X" and mistakenly click on the back button instead trying to return to the front of the card. If you have completion status for the click-to-reveal widget, those buttons could be hidden until the user has clicked on all the cards.

  17. Drag and drop with forced navigation option

    I design training for a healthcare system clinical competency. Part of this training involves instruction on proper placement of defibrillator pads. Placing defibrillator pads incorrectly can reduce the effectiveness of the shock and potentially lead to harm to the patient. I previously submitted Case ADB-36997462-K9H6, explaining that I had created a drag and drop to simulate the proper pad placement process. However, there currently is not forced navigation with drag and drop that would allow me to require the learner to select and place the first pad listed before they can place the second. Is there a possibility that your…

    I want to go directly to the the closed caption editor, with the text and cursor in editing mode, by double clicking on the closed captions on the slide. Rather than going to the slide audio button and clicking the edit button.

  20. Text formatting is off after importing translated caption and closed caption word file

    The import of translated caption and closed caption word file is not helping my purpose, as the font size, color and formatting are going off. Especially if I have a text box with two words in two different font size/style/color.
