  2. Include Master Slide in the new captivate.

    It is easier for us to automatically set our slide background images and text.

  3. Change the "Project End" actions option in the Preference Panel to revert back to "nothing"

    When you are setting the Preferences / Project / Publish to computer, if you choose one of the actions in the "Project End" option, you cannot revert back to nothing if you choose "Loop Project", "Close Project", "Open URL or file", or "Run JavaScript".

    In my case, I have selected the action "Close Project" but changes my mind, now I cannot revert back to nothing...

    This is outrageous as I have to generate this project all from scratch because of a silly configuration issue.

  4. 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.

  5. Mouse Pointer Settings

    Allow for editing the color of the mouse pointer or include the one that looks exactly like a mouse on your computer. We want to be as realistic as possible and the mouse that looked most accurate in Adobe Captivate Classic is not available in the All-New version of Captivate. The closest looking one is gray, but there is no way to change the color of it to white.

  6. Enable us to move images to the location of our choice on the slide. Also, allow us to stack or overlap images on top of one another.

    Currently, you have limited control over where an image is placed on the screen. For example, I was attempting to place our company logo in the lower right side of the screen, but could not do this. I would also like to be able to add an image on top of another image. For example, I might like to have a check mark appear over another image at a certain point during the narration.

  7. Multiple closed captions for Slide/Event video

    For the purposes of localization it would be helpful to have more than one closed caption SRT/VTT file for each video in the course and allow the user to select their own language preferences.

  8. AI Voice/text to speech workflow improvements

    I love this feature in then new version 12.5 with AI, however the workflow needs to be simplified. In many cases, I want the text I have on the screen to be spoken. I need to copy all that, open the text-to-speech, then paste the same information into the speech caption box, then click generate. Add a right-click option or a button that allows me to pick a text object already on the slide, and just convert it without all the duplicate effort.

  9. Allow re-ordering of buttons in a button block

    It would be helpful if you could change the order of existing buttons that appear in a button block.

    For example -- I have a project with two buttons. I've already set up complex interactions for each button. Now, I want to add a third button to the same block. By default, the third button appears on the right, but I want it to appear on the left. There is no way for me to move it there. Instead, I have to re-do the buttons I've already created and programmed.

  10. 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.

  11. Allow for adding captions to any audio, not just at the slide level. For example audio attached to slide objects or interactions.

  12. Web Object: Add HTML5 Animations

    Please add the option to insert HTML5 web animations under Web Object Source: System. Like but not only Adobe Animate projects or GSAP, Hype or other jQuery/JS animative applications. These files could be embedded in OAM or ZIP archive format like it is possible in Classic Captivate. This idea is closely related to the need of a Library in the All-New-Captivate.

  13. button audio

    Allow the use of asset audio files on a button click. Currently you can attach a play audio interaction, but you can't select the audio file from the asset library.

  16. Adjust colour of hyperlinks - both in theme options or manually.

    Hyperlinks default colour is lavender purple. This is not accessible on white or black. And users cannot change the link colour. Please make it adjustable.

  18. Allow the Timeline to be moved away from the stage to make screen management easier.

    In previous versions of Captivate, I was able to grab the timeline and place it anywhere I wanted on my monitors. I could then see the stage and timeline all at once. It was much more efficient.

  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.

  20. Keyboard Shortcuts for Buttons
