  1. Allow for audio to be played at 2x and 4x speed in HTML5 player

    In the HTML5 slide video player, the 2x and 4x button in the playbar at the bottom of the screen only speed up the slide by 2 and 4 times respectively and mute the audio. It would be a useful feature if the audio can also be sped up 2x and 4x when this button is pressed so users have the ability to both listen and watch the material at a faster speed.

  2. Advanced VR Goggle Support

    There are currently only two models of VR goggles with support (Samsung Gear VR + Google Daydream). Some of these models are difficult to obtain in Germany and only support certain smartphone brands or (sometimes outdated) models. For the educational context (360° tour, university library) and thus an extended use in new training formats, we would urgently like to see a broader support of several VR goggles models, so that the 360° environment in VR can also be used with several, especially newer smartphone models and independent of specific brands.

  3. Combi characters not accepted anywhere

    In previous versions this was a limitation for international users with a non-US keyboard only in widgets/learning interactions. But now it is the case for all text and this really bad. A combi character is where you need to use two keys to get the result, which is the case for most non-US keyboards needing a much larger set of characters. One example in Dutch: when two identical characters are in sequence but need to be pronounced both separately we need to put two points at its top (similar to the umlaut in German): 'creëren' has them on the second…

  4. Combination characters in CSV replaced by Chinese characters

    Dutch, like many other European languages has some combination characters. When I have the word 'creëren' in een CSV file, the two characters 'eë' after import are replaced by one chinese character. Too bad that I can't add a screenshot. I used Gill Sans as font. I am able to delete the chinese character, but there is no way to have the second ë with the double points on top appearing in any answer. This is a real important bug!

  5. Confusing Error log after CSV import

    Since there is no longer an Advanced Interaction panel to check the total score possible, I use the SUM functionality of Excel to calculate the total score in the score column. I had 7 questions, an empty line and than the sum. When importing the CSV both the empty line and the sum line are considered to be uncomplete questions and you get an error log with a lot of errors, whereas this is not important at all. It is nice that you can override the errors and import. However I imagine that this can be confusing. Not a game…

  6. TRUE/FALSE translation in CSV not imported

    I try to localise a quiz, and replaced TRUE/FALSE by its Dutch version, sometimes 'WAAR/ONWAAR' or JA/NEE'. However after import to a project, the default TRUE/FALSE replaces the translation. This is a bug. Even for English versions it is sometimes better to have other terms than TRUE/FALSE, depending on the question.

  9. Bug - Image Grid Text Overflow with Card Enabled

    On the image grid design option "Image Grid Vertical C1" there is a bug when you enable the card component.

    When the card is enabled, the text area for the caption and subtitle go past the boundary of the card. The issue persists at all content widths. If you make the content 100% wide and preview the slide, the text gets cut off.

    If I add padding to the cards at 30px, it pushes the text back into bounds, but that doesn't fit with my other card designs.

    If there is a way to adjust this in the JSON files…

  10. Add a closed captioning to a slide that includes a 'Web' video as the video Source.

    As it stands now you can only import closed captions when you upload the original mp4 file. If you choose the web video source option, there is not an option to add captions. At a minimum you should allow the use of the Youtube video playbar so users can toggle the youtube closed captions. This seems like a big miss for accessibility.

  11. Allow Captivate 2019 project files to be backward compatible with Adobe Captivate 2024 Application.

    Allow Captivate 2019 project files to be backward compatible with Adobe Captivate 2024 Applications.

    Problem: You cannot read Captivate Classic files (.CPTX) with the newer versions of Captivate that use (.CPT) file extension.

    Method:
    1. Open Adobe Captivate Classic 2019
    2. Open or create a new project file
    3. Save the project file, (.CPTX) file extension

    1. Open Adobe Captivate 2023
    2. Open the saved project file
    3. Look for files with .CPTX) 6a. CP 2023 will not allow .CPTX files to be opened (Read, Write, Edit)

    Result: Failed to open CP Classic 2019 files with anything newer than CP 2021 that only…

  15. report for quiz settings

    Recommend a report that shows all of the interactions that are set to 'include in quiz'.

    I'm using Captivate 12.3, and I accidentally clicked on some text boxes to 'include in quiz.' It was a lengthy process to click every single text box and button in my project to find the two random text boxes in my quiz totals.

  20. Icon on Carousel widget needs more customization and has bugs

    The carousel widget allows you to change the arrow icon shape, but it does not have all of the customization that the svg icons typically have (such as in the buttons). For instance, I wanted to test out something other than an arrow, but when I went back to the arrow, I couldn't flip it. This meant that my arrow was pointed in the wrong direction. I could not fix it without deleting the whole carousel and starting over. Additionally, my client wanted the button much bigger, but that is not possible.

    Additionally, I tried to use my own svg…
