  1. widget

    We had created a series of free Widgets (Captivate Classic terminology - not related to widgets in Captivate). The Captivate Classic widget functionality was great, because it allowed us to create a custom UI and include JS to the published file. Our widgets are here: https://envolvemedia.com/custom-applications/#captivate

    A simple example is the Save As Widget. The Captivate developer could use their own button instance that when clicked would just save the contents of that slide to a PDF or Image on the end-users machine.

    Captivate [New] doesn't allow for these widgets. Even creating a "Custom Design" does not support setting custom…

  3. Do not switch on automatic panning by default. It's too sensitive and not really used that often. Make the default setting 'No panning'

  4. make an easy way to make input fields mandatory and be resizable in width

    Been trying to make the input fields mandatory before the learner can click on the next button, I have tried lots of different conditions as not empty, not equal to _null (setting this variable to another empty field) before it shows the next button nothing has worked so far. I have managed to go around and use the click object option before the learner can see the button but this is not ideal.

    Also I don't see the need of a large input field that goes from one side to the other of the page but instead it would be…

  5. Video demo has no Control panel on Timeline

    Captivate Classic, Video Demo editor lost a lot of features. When switching to the editor, Timeline is no longer activated by default. You need to open it using the Window menu.
    Moreover the control panel at the bottom of the Timeline, where you had tiny buttons for navigation, for trimming, splitting, add panning/zooming points, switch to mouse points editing has completely disappeared. It makes working with Video Demo a real pain.
    Play/pause still is sometimes functional using the playbar, but that is not consistent (same as New Captivate). But for all other functionalities which were at the fingertips in previus…

  6. Buttons in widget slides (bugs)

    When I select an option in the DESIGN OPTIONS for a timeline slide, the button don't get "pill" shape, instead it gets the "circle" shape.

    When I try to apply a linear gradient, I have little to no control on the direction of the gradient.

    Even if I manage to apply the style, it seems I can't apply it automatically to all the other buttons.

    Also, if I'm required to add more custom buttons, could you please give the possibility to replace them with .SVG AND allowing us changing the size? We can hardly read the icons in the actual…

  8. Playbar shortcut

    In the published version, arrows on the keyboard should be a shortcut to the previous and next button. It wuld be useful for user experience and accessibility.

  10. Link javascript file to project

    Include an option to link an external javascript file to a Captivate project. In Cp 12 in particular such a link would be good in the "Project properties" under PUBLISH SETTINGS. An external js file would allow a sophisticated use of moderrn JS within a project. It would also go along well with the concept of ADD JAVASCRIPT CODE TO THE PUBLISHED HTML AT RUNTIME, formulated on https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/captivate/help/javascript-interface-adobe-captivate.html.

  12. CSV

    Why do you not allow importing csv files for quizzes? I have 1000s of question and I have to manually input every single question? I will go w Thinkific solely for this reason. This new update is not helpful or useful and definitely not productive. I loved the old version.

  13. Add functionality to the New Captivate to export a single MP3 file from multiple slides

    The previous version of Captivate allowed for a single MP3 file to be exported from multiple slides, each w/ individual MP3 files (i.e., "podcast"-like file). Is this on the radar for New Captivate? It's my primary use case and very disappointing that it's not available.

  14. Bring back object styles.

    Being able to apply universal changes across a large quantity of objects across all slides was one of the big reasons why I prefer Captivate 2019 to Storyline. This saves me so much time and I can use this for future trainings made for the same company.

  15. Allow text entry boxes to be fully customizable like Captivate 2019

    1. Allow auto submit w/o needing to hit Enter or Submit
    2. Allow TEB height to be adjustable
    3. Allow padding to be adjustable so I can use bigger text size without making the box taller

  16. Images on blocks do not have same properties as background images on slides (or image media block)

    When setting an image for the background appearance of a block, you lose the ability to set transparency, blur, brightness and contrast.
    1. Add an Introduction Slide
    2. Click on the Introduction block in the slide
    3. Expand the Appearance section in the properties panel
    4. Click the arrow next to Solid Fill and select 'Image'
    5. Import any image (from system or assets)
    RESULT: No ability to set transparency, blur or brightness and contrast
    EXPECTED: Ability to set transparency, blur, brightness and contrast

  17. blur

    Blur does not seem to be working properly. Blur is very subtle for most values. It's not until 50 that anything really happens. Then maybe 80 for the next. But the most significant is between 90 and 91. This occurs for all images and anything that blur applies. Seems like a bug that blur isn't very significant until 91. By then, it's too significant of a difference. 91 is probably appropriate, but the lower values should increase blur more

  20. Divided Content Containers

    Add the functionality to have content containers that only take up 1/2, 1/3, or maybe even 1/4th of the screen to enable more flexible and fuid content design within the slide.

    An example would be to have a logo in the header on the page with the image on a 1/4th content divider and the header on a 3/4th text content divider. I understand there are already content presets with an image in it; however there is very limited flexibility in modifying the spacing and location of each item in the preset.
