Allow overlay images (ie. click to reveal) expand to the whole overlay if there's no text element.
At the moment, if there's no text element the image still remains small. If there's no text element, it should expand to take up the whole overlay.

Keep drop-down areas open unless I close them
In the Properties area, there can be many drop-down menus I'm trying to view when viewing Appearance or Interactions. Sometimes I need to switch between these to view a setting for an object, and I'll have just opened a drop-down menu. Then, it's closed when I come back to it. I've found that it would be much more user friendly to have these drop-down areas stay open once I've opened them even if I navigate to something else in Captivate. Then, it would be my responsibility to close them if I don't wan to view them any longer. For example,…

Highlight Fill Outer Area
The ability to fill the outer area of a highlight to draw specific attention to something on the software simulation screen. This was so useful in Captivate Classic. In our software simulations, we like to point out things to users on screen and this is the best way to do that.

Bug: White screen instead of course
Randomly (probably 20% of the time) a blank white screen appears instead of courses built using new Captivate. This happens in our current LMS (Taleo), the LMS we are currently switching to (Workday), and SCORM Cloud. I've tested both SCORM 1.2 and SCORM 2004 3rd ed. using SCORM Cloud and received the same results as our LMS. I have the completion criteria set to Quiz is passed.
When the course does not load, this is the error displayed in Chrome Dev Tools:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'CPProjInit')
at main.chunk.js:1:1148493

Apply theme to all course elements
Some widgets/elements have icons or states that do not use the custom theme. They seem to use the colors from the default Light theme but should be using the custom theme applied to the project. See attachments showing the default blue instead of my custom theme.

Bug in Themes: Not importing custom theme
Frequently when importing my custom theme, it doesn't change the theme but tells me it is already imported. This usually requires reusing existing courses to create new ones with the correct theme. See attached image for the bugged behavior and the other showing the correct theme.

Hot keys for Radio Buttons
When you do incorporate hot keys, it is vital that hotkeys are available for radio buttons to use the keyboard to select A, B, C, D on question slides, which was not available in Captivate Classic.

Add scrolling text boxes
When my slide layouts are fixed, sometimes my text exceeds what can fit in the defined boundaries. I need to be able to have scrolling text boxes, so the rest of the slide stays static, but I can scroll through the text that is too long for the box.

Bug_Active Adobe fonts not available in Captivate 12 but were in 2019
I designed templates in Captivate Classic with Georgia Pro and Sans Source Pro typefaces and using specific Semibold and Regular font style.
I've verified that the fonts are active in my account on Adobe.com, in Captivate 12 I only have access to Georgia (and only Bold, no semibold) and no Source Sans Pro at all, only Source Sans 3, italic.
Is there something specific I should do in the setup to make sure all the brand fonts are there?

Please can you make Adobe Captivate 2023 compatible for Linux as it is more secure than Windows. Many people have moved across to Linux.
Please can you make Adobe Captivate 2023 compatible for Linux as it is more secure than Windows. Many people have moved across to Linux. They don't use Windows anymore. I have Linux and Windows now because I don't have a choice as the Adobe website only offers installations for Windows and Mac. Linux is a lot more secure, please please implement

More support for 'Hide during publish'
I wanted to have an object NOT show when the slide was first displayed. You can 'Hide during publish' some items like buttons, but not others like Media blocks. As others have noted, if you use a Slide Enter trigger to hide an object, it is still shown before it is hidden, making that slide enter triggers unusable

Slide Enter triggers will not let you navigate to next slide (or previous slide)
I wanted to set a timer on a slide, so that it navigates to the next slide after a period of time. However, the Go to Next Slide (and Go to slide) are disabled for the Slide Enter triggers
