  2. Allow for more editing on overlays and make scroll bars always visible

    With the overlays, the text box for the body is very small. It'd be nice if we could adjust the size of the box.

    Also, being that the scroll bar is not visible, even on hover over, learners may not know there is additional content. There should be an option to make the scroll bar always visible.

  3. Make zoom optional

    When you hover over a card, it automatically zooms in. If you've used a headshot image, it's odd that it zooms in on their face. Zoom in on hover should be optional

  4. Allow for full editing of the quiz captions

    Currently, the font, text size, and text color of the captions on the quiz slides cannot be edited. Through Theme Editor, the caption backgrounds can be changed for success and error, but not for incomplete. The message content can be edited through Preferences, but there is no way to change the font, text size, and text color. This poses accessibility issues as there is often not enough contrast for these messages.

  5. Reorder interactions

    When I select a step in my interaction (Advanced Action) I cannot reorder this step to be the first of all my actions using either the drag and drop method or the reorder up button.

  6. External Library

    It is impossible to convert a project created in a previous version. At least allow to open the project library of an older project as external library as was the case in all previous versions. That would make the recreation of a project in the new version a little bit easier. I have used libraries from very old versions in recent versions of Captivate. Even if you don't want to provide a Library in the new version.

  7. Restore Control Movie variables

    The Control Movie variables were the ones I used most of all system variables and they are completely gone. This is a big step backwards. Even for the very simple Boolean ones (CC, TOC hide/show)..

  8. Feedback messages issues

    Due to the deprecation of Themes there are no object styles for the Feedback messages on quizzes. They have terrible color combinations which make them unreadable. It is possible to edit the style of the Shape/Text when finding the Hide button next to the barely visible because dimmed 'Caption' option. However I didn't find a way to transfer the new styling to all the feedback messages in the project. Is that possible?
    What about Advanced Answer for MCQ?

  10. Deleting item on Timeline

    The only way to delete it at this moment is by using the right-click menu. I cannot use the Delete key on my keyboard. This may be due to the fact that I am NOT on a US keyboard, but on an AZERTY Belgian keyboard.

  11. Typewriter bugs

    When applying an Entrance Typewriter animation on more than one text in a slide, and the texts are staggered on the timeline, only the first animation will appear. Sometimes it will only appear if the first text starts from the first frame. If you delete the animation on the first text, and keep it on the second text which appears later the animation never plays. It is a rather inconsistent bug, which I explored with multiple slides, Text Blocks and Media Blocks containing text components.

  12. Play video by clicking video instead of the tiny little play button in the corner.

    If you want a scrolling course with multiple videos you have to use the video grid media block. When you use them the only way to play the videos is to click the tiny little play button in the bottom left corner. When you're in the program you can click the video to play it, but once you preview or publish it you lose that functionality. You should be able to just click the video to play it because that a much more intuitive workflow.

  13. Feature request: Saving design options for components and widgets

    Would be great to save own design options for components and widgets. Also importing/exporting would be helpful to share with customers and team mates. After styling a widget I cannot simplychange the layout without loosing several changes made earlier.

  14. Cannot center the title on the Click to Reveal widget

    On the other widgets you can select the widget and choose which components you want to include. If you hover over the component, like the Title, you can choose how you want to justify the text on the widget. You cannot do that on the Click to Reveal, hovering over the component reveals nothing and so the title is permanently left justified. You can center the text, but its still to the left side of the widget. This is the Default design. The other designs do have the title centered, but you should just be able to do it yourself…

  15. Repair Discover in Classic Captivate for Characters/Templates.

    Presently the Discover tab in the Assets panel which allowed to access more Characters and Templates in version 11.5.5, is dimmed? Please restore it, or at least explain why that functionality is now lost.

  16. Bug - using arrow keys removes text

    When using the arrow keys to update text in a Software Simulation text box, any text entered disappears and goes back to the default 'Type instruction here' message. Seems this is just prior to saving and only using up and down keys.

  18. You should be able to click images, in any block, and open them in a new window to view full-size.

    Most of the image formatting options are incredibly limited. I use many detailed images that need to be viewed up close. It would be incredibly helpful if users could click an image and view it full size. The best I can do at this point is turn my text block into a link that opens the image, but clicking the image itself would be a much more elegant solution.

  19. Allow for cropped views of cutout characters in Asset Store

    I was using the single and two-character media blocks and realized that I could not select a cropped view of the characters like I could in previous versions of Adobe Captivate. I know I can crop these images after but this was a nice feature.

  20. layout change request - mobile view

    On mobile the widget slider layout does not look user friendly. Navigational buttons should not appear left/right. Because there is no margin/padding Setting, there is no room left for customizing.
