  1. Drag and Drop Widget doesn't calculate score properly when added to reporting.

    The scoring for the Drag and Drop widget doesn't get properly added to the scores from other questions. Most of the time it adds a 0 even if you answer the question properly. Sometimes it adds a 1 regardless of what you enter. I have had to leave these questions out of the scoring totals for consistent results.

  3. email hyperlink

    When I enter an email to hyperlink, it adds https:// to it and when the auto-filled email pops up when clicked, it won't send due to it being the wrong address. Not sure if this is user error on my part but I have tried everything to get this to work as well as the webpage links.

  5. Saving Captions as Part of the Theme

    I would like the ability to save changes to feedback captions like Correct and Failure as part of the theme. This would save me time that I presently spend updating each caption one by one.

  8. Text to speech panel open when moving from slide to slide

    I've been entering many slides of text to speech and I have to open the text to speech panel for each time I navigate to another slide. To me it would make sense if the software would keep a panel open until I select to display another.

  9. Multilingual support

    our courses have more than one target audience. we have videos on Sharepoint that historically we have been able to embed. This is no longer possible in Captivate 12.

    The videos in SharePoint are capable of hosting captions in many languages. It we cannot embed these videos anymore, we would need a way to accommodate captions with in the Captivate CC functionality

  10. increase the volume for recording audio

    When recording audio in Classic Captivate I have the opportunity to calibrate and can see my volume changing with the volume of my laptop.

    When recording audio in the New Captivate, while I can calibrate my volume, I don't see any difference on the calibration screen when I change my input volume from my laptop.

    The result in the New Captivate is that the audio is too quiet. I then have to go to each slide, individually, and reset the audio to best input in order to hear it. While it's a hassle to update each slide, the bigger problem…

  12. TTS - Connect to external speech services such as Azure Speech Studio

    Currently text to speech is extremely limited with legacy microsoft desktop and neo speech voices. Competitor products now provide the ablity to connect directly to new-gen neural speech generation platforms such as Azure Speech Studio (microsoft) and Amazon Poly. Ideally, text narrative on a slide could be generated in Azure Speech Studio with the click of a button and the audio is automatically placed in the slide. Currently I have to generate speech mp3 files in Azure, download them, then import them into Captivate which is a slow and convoluted process, especially if minor edits are required and the whole…

  13. 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.

  14. User Guide: confusing info

    In the User Guide, section TOC/playbar this is written:
    "Select TOC and playbar in the LEFT TOOLBAR-"

  15. undo button on drag and drops

    the reset button is great but an undo option to undo the last thing you moved would be very helpful so you dont have to begin the interaction from the start.

  16. add separate accessibility options for links when more than one link is used in the same block of text

    when you create a text block each block of text has its own accessibility options.
    but within each text block you can add more than one link.

    can we make it so that each link has its own accessibility option.

  17. Add extra actions to the widgets

    When you add a tab widget it would be nice to be able to add our own actions to the buttons, this would allow us to add our own custom validation or extra text to appear after all tabs have been seen.

    I would expect the actions to make the widget would be locked but we could add extra.

    Another example would be to use the flip card widget as a way to create a knowledge check or show images if certain combinations are selected.

  18. when the screen size gets smaller the buttons will stack vertically even when there is enough sace for them to be side by side.

    when you add a set of buttons they seem to act odd. it sometimes even seems to get the orientation mixed up.

    I suggest giving us more control over the orientation of the buttons.

  19. 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.

  20. Support for Captivate on MacOS Sonoma

    It's about time to get Captivate ready for the MacOS 14 Sonoma. In the Syestem Requirements it still says: "Note: Captivate isn't yet supported on Sonoma."
