Software simulation settings should be sticky
In 2019, when you created a software simulation it remembered size, location on screen and other settings. Now, each time I create a simulation, it asks me for the same details. This means if I have forgotten to take a screen or series of actions, the capture area is not in the same place. This means a lot of messing around to get the capture lining up with the software window. It's incredibly frustrating. Also, please remember the tracking setting! I don't want or need automatic tracking, so having it reset each time is irritating.

Input Field needs fully resizable option to accommodate simulation screens
The input field needs to be fully re-sizable to mimic a simulation environment like what can be done in Captivate 2019. Now an input field sticks out and cannot be formatted to match the simulated application environment

incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.
We use the Synthesia.io tool to generate videos which we then incorporate into Captivate.
Synthesia.io allows you to share videos directly from their site, without going through Youtube or Vimeo. However, Captivate cannot incorporate videos from sites other than Youtube or Vimeo.
We would like to be able to incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.1 vote -
Click-to-reveal-widget: Overlay should cover the entire slide
If you click on a card using the click-to-reveal widget, the content is overlaid by a grey area on which the overlay with its components is then located. However, the grey area only covers the area of the widget block. It would be nice if this grey area covers all blocks or even the entire slide so that only the overlay is active.

video webm format support
Today, the only format accepted by Captivate for videos is mp4. The webm format is more compressed than mp4, and would consume less bandwidth from the LMS.

Bug: Hotspots move when changing the window size
If you change the window size, the hotspots move away from their fixed positions. If you repeat this behaviour, the hotspots move further and further outwards until they are no longer accessible.

FOR THIS FEEDBACK WEBSITE - why do I need additional credentials?
I have all admin rights in the Global Admin Console and Admin Console, I suggest you to link those accounts to this portal. Also do I need one account for each "uservoice" product?
Adding an Other category and a category for Global Admin Console and Admin Console will also make sure to classify those requests better instead of getting lost under other products

FOR GLOBAL ADMIN CONSOLE AND ADMIN CONSOLE - Manage group administrators
Managing administrators in both Global Admin Console and Admin Console it is just a pain.
We can sync groups and you have the false impression that you can use the everywhere, where for Admins they have to be added manually in a list in the UI.I understand from your support that there are different layers of admins for product, but having separate groups for all or them it's also an option.
I'm not sure about other companies, but for the ones that just have a couple of people responsible for licenses and Adobe management they have all the admin…

Fix problem where pasting from external program pastes text twice.
Pasting text from browser or acrobat pastes the text twice for some reason. Then I have to delete half of what is pasted. Why does it do this? Please fix this problem.

Change margins of text in carousel widget.
Without an image the text spreads across the screen, which is far to wide of a line length for on-text reading. If there is already a way to do this, please make it more obvious. I spent way longer than I should have before giving up. Honestly, it's a terrible design that you can only change these margins on some element. Don't even get me started elements have handles that don't do anything (resize). It's as though the developer have no concern for standardized user interfaces, which is what really makes things intuitive and easy. Why must we constantly click…

Enable Feedback for Adobe Captivate Classic
Under "Give Feedback" is apart from Adobe Captivate also Adobe Captivate Classic listed. With 0 (zero) feedbacks. There I've tried to enter a new idea but it's not working. Why is that? CpC is scheduled to be active until 2027. Time enough for improvements. Please also add "Provide Feedback..." to the Help menu of CpC.

{BUG} Cannot change font to bold, italic, underline, or Strikethrough
As the video shows -
Cannot change the font to Bold, italic or anything else.
This issue still persists after closing Captivate and coming back the next day to work on a file.
Cause - I believe using the hotkey CTRL + B breaks it.
