allow us to change the default keyboard shortcuts
There is a bug with the play/pause function. Clicking pause on the on-screen keyboard does not work. Remapping keys in powertoys does not work. None of the key combinations involving the Fn key work.
A lot of keyboards don't have a pause/break button, so we need a way to map that to a different key. It's also better for workflow because we don't have to move our hands as much.
Also, F11 still works even though the documentation does not mention it.

Ensure font consistency based on Theme Editor; ensure consistent "fall-back" fonts
If a user does not have fonts listed in the theme editor, the fall-back font use appears inconsistent. For example, two boxes on the same slide may both be selected as Heading 6 but appear as two completely different fonts to the viewer.
Even when using basic fonts available to all users, some learners see a different font than I see in the preview and published modes. Fonts are, at time, inconsistent to what I have in the preset fonts for the module.
Ensuring font consistency is crucial to the deployment of a professionally streamlined product.

Slide video sometimes restarts the video
I have several slides with slide video blocks, each of which displays a different MP4 video file. The project is hosted on a web server, not an LMS. I noticed that when I updated the videos, and re-uploaded the project to the web server, the videos would often spontaneously restart anywhere from 3 to 10 seconds into the video. The problem was more pronounced after I cleared my browser (Edge) cache, and the restart problem seemed to go away after I ran the project a few times. This led me to believe it was related to how the slide video…

Use the Project Name in Preferences for the tab description, rather than the filename
Currently there is a line in the assets > js > project.js file as follows:
pN:'My Captivate project filename.cpt'
The value for pN is set to the filename and extension of the Captivate Project. This is also the value that is shown as the browser tab description when running the project in a browser. It would be better if, instead of showing the filename - which has little interest to the user - it instead shows the Project Name under Project Information in the Preferences. The Project Name can be set to something meaningful to the user, which would likely…

Bug - Tabs Widget does not show correctly in preview
When using the Tabs Widget in captivate all looks fine but in preview in Horizontal Mobile (only) all texts is cramped into the right side. When you remove the image element there is no such problem. It seems that the picture does not resize, therefore not space is left for the text. It is a shame because this widget has a lot of use cases in learning. See attached media. Any idea of fixes will be welcomed.

Create the ability to insert videos to auto play and place and shrink wherever it's needed by the user
Currently, if you want to insert a video, it creates a rectangular prison that doesnt allow the video to be moved (for me, I created an animation in Adobe express and uploaded it as an MP4 into Captivate- since it is an ADOBE product, it should be integrated into other adobe programs)
It also doesnt allow for resizing beyond a certain size regardless if you undo auto.

Fix Captivate (new - 13.1) launch screen to be accessible at different text sizes.
I updated to 13.1 yesterday, hoping to be able to adjust the reading order in a classic project. Installed the new version and noticed that things didn't fit in the launch screen and were getting cut off. I clicked the Import button and selected the Captivate Classic option. The popup opened, but the image extended and was cut off at the bottom of the screen, and I was missing the Learn more link and the Continue button. There's no option to scroll or resize anything in the Launch screen, nor can you resize the launch screen itself. My colleague tried…

This new version is no where compare to Classic Captivate and now voted suggestion may take decade to be par with CPC
A new version should retain all the features of the old one while also introducing meaningful enhancements. However, the new CP still falls far short of CPC. The development team may not fully understand which CPC features users rely on, and some basic options have been removed entirely. For example, adding a simple text box now requires inserting an entire block, with limited editing options that are locked within a group. In addition, the new CP crashes too often. If every missing feature must go through a suggestion and voting process before the development team prioritizes it, it could take…

Custom Completion Certificate Filename
It would be helpful to have the ability to set a custom download name for the certificate file instead of using the default “Captivate Certificate.” Many users aren’t tech‑savvy, and renaming downloaded files can be challenging. Allowing authors to define a filename that matches the course title would make the process much more user‑friendly.

Being able to add to the number of checkbox rows within interactive components
As seen in the 2 attached screenshots, there is no way to add/increase the number of checkboxes (as an interactive component) for use in a checklist type of a scenario. Currently multiple separate checkbox components will need to be created for a workaround which is a lengthy process as spacings need to be changed.
