  2. Display Time Limit for question slides

    The ability to add a time limit per question slides is great, however it would be nice to display this countdown timer to learners so they can gauge how much time they have left. Is there a system variable that could be displayed or other method to achieve this?

  4. Jump to bookmark with Overlay - Audio Issue

    On my main slide, I added bookmarks (located after the slide audio). The bookmarks open an overlay slide with audio. If I jump to the first bookmark before the main slide audio is finished, the overlay opens and the overlay audio plays; however, the main slide audio also starts over and plays at the same time. If I wait for the main slide audio to end and jump to the first bookmark, it does not happen.

    Note - it works fine in preview but not after publishing.

  5. Add ability to change states of text block - not just the components within the block

    It would be great if there was an option to change the state of a text block, not just the components within the block.

    For example, I'd like the ability to change the text of the title subtitle, but I also want to be able to change the background color of the entire block based on an action of the user.

  6. Enable more design features for the quiz slides

    Currently if you insert a quiz slide you cannot add any additional design elements - they are all greyed out. It would be great if there was more flexibility with the design on these slides as it is a critical slide for e-learning

  7. pdf

    Allow the Captivate project to be exported as a PDF, so learners could print all slides and retain a copy of the presentation.

  8. Allow autoplay of event video upon slide enter.

    Using version 12.5, it would be helpful to have the option to force an event video to play automatically upon slide enter.

    Font bug: When simply changing a default font Georgia from a text and image block to "Lato" font, the software crashes. The font can be used in any other Adobe applications so not sure why Captivate crashes with such a simple task.

  12. Bug: Center alignment and movement of tab widget

    In version 12.4, the Tabs Widget does not remain center-aligned when published. Even though the widget appears centered during editing, it shifts position upon preview and publish. Additionally, when the browser window is resized, the tab widget moves erratically instead of maintaining its centered placement. This affects the visual consistency and usability of the project.

    Attached is a short video and image showing the issue.
    Requesting a fix so the Tabs Widget can maintain proper center alignment on initial load and when resizing the browser window.

  13. Allow width of photo vs. text to be adjustable

    In Tabs widget, cannot adjust width of photo vs. text box on each tab. Would like to be able to make text larger with a smaller image, but boxes are fixed.

  15. Improve question slides

    I want to request a small but significant improvement to the question slides. My current client would like me to use the AI voices for the feedback captions as well. I can do this by creating a temporary blank slide, generating the audio, exporting it, and then importing the audio into the caption on the question slide. It would be great if I could access the text-to-speech window directly from the audio section of the caption, as it would save me a lot of steps. Also, if the submit button could be programmed to pause the slide, it would effectively…

  16. Make active slide easier to see

    Currently, on the Slide navigator, the outline or highlight that tells you which slide you are working on (active slide) is too thin and difficult to see. PLEASE MAKE IT EASIER to see the active slide on the list by applying a thicker bright color border around the active slide. See my attachment.

  17. Library

    We need a library so that I can see all my assets in my project, including what I add. That way I can see what is used the most and what images are a large file size, that may need to be reduced for playability.

  18. Bring back the markup/editing tools in the new Captivate for iOS.

    I create elearning and I need all the boxes and arrows and text boxes that have disappeared from v12.5. I can't even HIDE a slide after I've recorded something in this version. If those tools are not coming back, please let us know. I will need to cancel my subscription and move to another creation tool.

  19. Export Project Content and Closed Captions for Localization of Simulations

    I attempted to export Project Content and Closed Captions for a Training Simulation only to get a document file that contained only generic fields but non of my actual instruction or feedback caption content. If this is error I would like to know how to correct this. If this has not been developed for version 12 then I would like to report this as a bug. I have attached the exported word document.
