responsive design - Complaint:
I find it incredibly irritating that I can’t create my eLearning content in a non-responsive format. Transitioning to the new Captivate has been difficult, especially when it comes to using my own templates. I struggle with placing titles and buttons where I want them.
Additionally, I would appreciate guidance on creating custom templates. I’ve searched for videos on this topic, but most only showcase the default themes in Captivate. A tutorial specifically focused on custom templates would be extremely helpful.
Furthermore, the Table of Contents needs to be updated to allow for the addition of brand colors and fonts, as…

Content width/Alignment % and title/text spacing should be the same for all blocks
An 80% width Image block is not the same width as an 80% Text block. It should align perfectly, but it doesn't (see image). I suppose I could adjust it with the new padding feature, but this really shouldn't be necessary. A certain % width should be the same for all blocks.
Also, the spacing between title and text is inconsistent. Maybe it's because an image block doesn't have body text, only Caption and Subtitle? But why?
Those basic details should be a given, it shouldn't be necessary to find workarounds, or fiddle with padding or line spacing to make…

unique feedback for each answer in multiple choice
I would like to have the ability to select different feedback captions depending on which multiple-choice answer was selected. This will make the feedback caption less generic and provide an opportunity to teach or reinforce during assessments as well.

Revisit button functions on results slides
After the recent Captivate update, buttons on the results page are not behaving as expected. If users get to the page and choose to review their quiz and then get back to the results page, the continue button no longer performs its action. Another thing that I noticed that I hadn't before, if a user fails their quiz it might be helpful to only provide the review button after their final attempt. If users select the review button before they retake the quiz, the retake button disappears on revisit to the results page. On one hand this is good to…

Select multiple question slides and change common properties all at once
In the previous version of Adobe Captivate, we were able to select multiple question slides and change properties common to all the question slides. For example, if I wanted all my question slides to have two tries instead of one, we used to be able to select all the slides and make this change. Now I have to make these changes one by one.

Allow option to retain closed captions when replacing slide audio
I may tweak a small aspect of my slide's audio and upload a new version to the slide. Doing so currently (in 12.4) removes my existing captions, forcing me to redo every caption on that slide.
It would be nice to have a pop-up that asks if I want to retain or delete existing captions when changing the audio file.

Widgets and carousel should have more than 6 items/pages
The current timeline widget, carousel widget, hotspot widget etc. only have up to 6 items/pages. I've been working on projects with a 15 point timeline, or an 8 point hotspot activity, or a 9 page carousel. Which means, I couldn't use these widgets and had to come up with my own custom design, which is very time consuming and more difficult than it needs to be.
Please add the ability to have at least 15, or a custom defined number of items/points/pages in a widget or carousel.

Reset scrolling content to start at the top of the page.
If you have a slide with scrolling content linked to another slide with scrolling content (such as when you click continue at the end of the 1st scrolling slide) for some reason, the next slide starts at the bottom and not the top where it should!
This completely ruins the user experience and flow of content, forcing them to scroll up backwards all the way to the top. NOT GOOD! If this is an internal programing glitch, then it needs to be addressed IMMEDIATELY!! 😬

Have Continue Button Appear Only if Passing Grade
Presently you can turn on or off all the components of a quiz results slide. I would like to have the ability to turn on or off buttons such as review, retake, and Continue depending on the pass or fail. More specifically I would like to only show the continue button if the student passes and hide the continue button if they fail, encouraging them to retake the quiz.

Print slides, text, and closed captions to Word like in Classic
We use the Print feature in Classic to keep documentation of courses (slides, text captions, slide notes) for review by SMEs and auditors and for record retention. The export function in new CPT does not capture enough information. I'd like to be able to open a Word doc and see the slide, then under it all the slide notes and text captions like you can in Handouts in Print in Classic.

Preview without the device icons at the top
A viewer of my YouTube channel suggested this idea, and I think it might be beneficial. Could we have an option to preview a project truly as it would be published, i.e., without the device preview icons at the top of the page? We certainly can resize our browsers to simulate what different devices might look like. Perhaps the icons have outlived their usefulness, or perhaps this is an option that can be turned on or off in the preferences window.

Allow customized carousel page styles to be copied or applied across all instances.
This would also apply to other widgets, but if you need to customize the overall appearance of the carousel slide pages, i.e.( colors, text, cards, borders, etc...) it is EXTREMELY annoying and time consuming to be forced to make the same changes over and over for each instance!
Therefore, I HIGHLY suggest adding a checkbox somewhere in the properties panel that applies your custom styles to ALL instances within the same widget. This would save so much extra production time!

bug: variables are copied when copying interactions
When an interaction, including variables, is copied, a copy of all variables is automatically created. However, these additional variables are not needed and cannot be deleted.
For example, if you have 4 buttons on a page that each need to check if 5 variables have a value of 1, you can enter this manually, which is quite tedious. Alternatively, you can set it up once manually and then copy it. However, this results in having a total of 20 variables instead of 5, where only 5 are actually needed. The remaining 15 variables are redundant and cannot be deleted, causing…

Incorporate ability to add two more blocks side-by-side by adjusting the block width.
Ability to add two or more blocks side-by-side by allowing to adjust the width of the blocks. This will help when navigation buttons or similar small elements are to be placed by the side of a text or other content blocks.
