  2. provide better support for xAPI

    When I publish to xAPI using Adobe Captivate (modern and classic), I cannot get it to generate POST statements to my Learning Record Store when I run the content. Spent a lot of time working with my friend Claude to troubleshoot, but no success.

  3. Publishing over an existing published folder of the same name (as after making revisions), erases the contents

    If you make revisions to a project that you previously published to a folder, and you re-publish over that same folder, it erases the contents of the folder and does not create new published content. You end up with a folder that only has the project.text file in it.

  4. Rename Text to Speech Audio Tracks

    Would like to be able to give audio a custom name, both in the timeline and when exported. "Text to Audio1" not very helpful.

  5. feedback caption missing

    I have a MCQ slide with multiple answers. If I do not select enough answers, but the ones that I do select are correct, there is no feedback caption shown. It moves straight to the next slide.
    eg.
    my MCQ has 5 possible answers
    of those 5 answers, 3 are correct
    when answering the question, if i only select 1 or 2 correct answers and nothing else, the feedback caption does not show.

  6. Add a completion dialog to the "Remove Unused Items" function

    The option "Remove Unused Items" is helpful and seems to do the job of cleaning up the project file and reducing its size. However, under Captivate 12.6.0 there is no completion dialog to inform the user that the function has been completed. A useful dialog might be something like the following:

    All unused items have been removed from this project.

    48 items were removed, reducing this project file size by 586k.

  7. Ability to Widen the images in a Checkbox

    I am using images in a checkbox but I am not able to widen the checkbox to fit in a wide sized image. The only size available to me is something almost square. Would it be possible for a checkbox or the multiple choice question slides extend in size depending on the image chosen? I am attaching an example that shows the issue. The first image is a bit small for users to see but if it could be extended to the right, it would be a lot easier. The image attached is just an example.

    In the ellipsis for Share for Review, it would be nice to have a download all feedback next to delete. This would be useful for record-keeping.

  9. Upgrading to Captivate 13 has broken the 'download background image' function for software sims.

    I used this function regularly before but when I upgraded to Captivate 13 trying to use this function now just haywires Captivate out. After clicking this button I am unable to change slides or save my progress, forcing me to just force close and restart Captivate.

  11. Bug: Consolidating different simulations into a single file swaps FMR videos

    Because Captivate constantly crashes during the recording of simulations, I've decided to record shorter simulations and then consolidate them into a single file. The problem is, especially for FMR slides, the video is getting swapped — i.e., the audio is correct for that slide, but the video shown in the preview (and the SCORM output) is from a different slide. Captivate, however, shows the video as if everything were fine, so there is really no way fix it because for Captivate it's not broken.

  13. ragesh.c@gds.ey.com

    The new Adobe Captivate version does not support adding custom navigation elements like in the Classic version. Currently, the header and footer only allow limited customization—such as displaying the course name, page number, and TOC. There is no option to globally add essential navigation buttons like Back, Next, Glossary, or Resources across the course design. This limitation significantly impacts the flexibility and user experience of eLearning modules. Please consider reintroducing the ability to create and apply custom navigation players, as available in Adobe Captivate Classic.

  14. Accessibility Bug: The scrolling text area does not have a tab index

    The click to reveal widget forces a scrolling text box. This text box cannot be scrolled by a keyboard user, because there is no tab index on the box itself. It is also not clear that the text box is scrollable, because the thumb for the scrollbar is hidden until scrolling with the mouse. This box should be responsive on browser zoom and expand vertically to show the text, rather than cut the text off in a scrolling area. If it must do a scrolling area, that scrolling area needs the scroll bar thumb as an indicator, and also needs…

  15. [Feature] Extended styling options for buttons in designOption.json

    Problem:
    Currently, not all styles available in the Captivate GUI can be set via the button’s designOption.json.
    Examples: gradient in shapeData, inner/outer shadows including position, and certain icon settings do not apply.

    Suggestion:
    Extend the button’s designOption.json, so that all styles available in the GUI can be applied.
    Additionally, as with content_blocks and smart_widgets, the JSON for buttons should be extended with customStyles.

  16. [Feature] Control visibility of Design Options in the GUI

    Problem:
    All Design Options currently appear automatically in the menu, including those that are only used within other Design Options.

    Suggestion:
    Add a property in designOption.json (e.g., visible: false) to control the visibility of a Design Option, so internal options are not shown in the menu.

  17. Being able to copy and paste images

    It would be helpful if images can be uploaded via copy/paste. Similar to how PowerPoint works, when an image is pasted onto a slide an image block is used. Also being able to copy images to reuse them without having to go through the file pathways to find the image source would help simplify and speed the process.

  18. Add Ability to Lower Slide/Thumbnail Resolution to Improve Editing Time

    Currently the program is super slow, and it's frustrating sitting there waiting for thumbnails of slides to process before I can even click them. I wish there was a way we could lower the resolution of our slides/thumbnails (like how Adobe After Effects allows you to lower the resolution to 1/4 or 1/2 to enable faster editing).

    I don't need my slides and thumbnails to look perfectly crisp while editing and if they were lower resolution in the editor it might help me speed up my process.

    I use some animated GIFs as images, and in the thumbnails Captivate is…

  19. Playhead Not Accurate In Timeline

    This is especially noticeable when I've just added a new audio to the slide. I add the audio, press play on the timeline, and the playhead is frozen in place while the audio plays uncontrollably in the background. Eventually the playhead starts moving, but it's inaccurate. When the screen is frozen and the audio is playing, I have to just sit there and wait for the playhead to start moving. If I click anything before the playhead starts moving again, the program can crash or freeze.

    I've noticed the timeline is pretty inaccurate in general, and I have to time…

  20. Make 'Auto Fit Height' include manual Padding Inputs

    In previous updates, I was able to add my custom padding and then select 'Auto Fit Height' to ensure that the content would stretch all the way across the screen, but it still maintained my padding settings.

    Currently, when I check 'Auto Fit Height' and preview, it will remove any padding and press the elements super close together - making it a useless function because there's no breathing room on the page anymore. So what I'm doing as a workaround is manually adding tons of padding so the images/text look centered vertically on the slide. Please bring back the original…
