allow for a fixed multiple choice answer when answers are shuffled
A lot of us use "All of the above" (and sometimes even "None of the above") as a multiple-choice answer, but from a layout perspective it only makes sense to have that (or those) answer(s) at the bottom. Another way to think about it would be to only shuffle certain answers, but not others. Maybe creating a fixed class and having it positioned at 16 (given that 15 is the limit)?

Make Images Exportable for External Editing
I can't find a way to edit an image from Captivate in Illustrator or Photoshop. I am being handed a Captivate file and not always all of the source files used to create it. It'd be really helpful to have a right click and 'Edit in Photoshop' option for when the graphic file is not available. This function exists in other Adobe products, please add it to the new Captivate.

Grouping
I want the ability to group select multiple media blocks to quickly move or cut and paste to a different location. I tend to lose my place when transitioning between slides when cutting content from one slide to the next.

button audio
Allow the use of asset audio files on a button click. Currently you can attach a play audio interaction, but you can't select the audio file from the asset library.

Please add Advanced Interaction
I use it to check items included in the quiz and all the URLs. It would be great if there was a window where you could see all the URLs associated with buttons, links, and actions. You could also update the URLs in that window. I spend many hours every year checking and updating URLs in my projects.
If Adobe could have a URL forwarder for Captivate that we could use to maintain URLs outside of the LMS, it would be even better. I know that I can pay for a service like this, but it is cost prohibitive.

Mouse Pointer Settings
Allow for editing the color of the mouse pointer or include the one that looks exactly like a mouse on your computer. We want to be as realistic as possible and the mouse that looked most accurate in Adobe Captivate Classic is not available in the All-New version of Captivate. The closest looking one is gray, but there is no way to change the color of it to white.

hide properties
Clicking the Properties, Interactions, Animations, Audio, and Accessibility buttons switches the panel between them. Can you make it so that when we click the currently active choice, it hides the panel? I keep clicking it, thinking it will, but it doesn't. When I'm working on my laptop though, I often wish for that 20% of the screen back.

Being able to copy and paste images
It would be helpful if images can be uploaded via copy/paste. Similar to how PowerPoint works, when an image is pasted onto a slide an image block is used. Also being able to copy images to reuse them without having to go through the file pathways to find the image source would help simplify and speed the process.

Make the Multiple Choice Question Shuffle Blue when activated
In previous versions when you wanted to activate the shuffle questions button, it turned blue. Now it is clear background if not activated and gray background if activated. It is not easy to see quickly or tell which is which.

Allow re-ordering of buttons in a button block
It would be helpful if you could change the order of existing buttons that appear in a button block.
For example -- I have a project with two buttons. I've already set up complex interactions for each button. Now, I want to add a third button to the same block. By default, the third button appears on the right, but I want it to appear on the left. There is no way for me to move it there. Instead, I have to re-do the buttons I've already created and programmed.

Adjust timing of caption in simulation
On a slide with a software simulation, it would be helpful to be able to adjust the timing of the captions which appear on success, failure, or providing a hint. Better yet would be to add the standard "press y or click anywhere to continue" option to allow the learner to choose when to continue. Currently, when enabled, the captions do not remain onscreen long enough for the user to fully read the message.

Please consider to include an equation editor in Adobe Captivate 12.5.

Allow more than 6 images in an image grid
It'd be great if we could add more than 6 images to an image grid. The ability to add an infinite number to a single grid would be helpful.

Improve the inspector interface by using features similar to other adobe products
All other adobe CC products have a small arrow button interface to allow pixel increments in measurements for everything, including using the scroll wheel in the mouse to increase or decrease numbers. Captivate interface could have the same, with immediate response in the results for precise checking. Typing numbers sometimes seem to be time consuming, especially when you want to change small increases/decreases on different fields.

Export Project Content and Closed Captions for Localization of Simulations
I attempted to export Project Content and Closed Captions for a Training Simulation only to get a document file that contained only generic fields but non of my actual instruction or feedback caption content. If this is error I would like to know how to correct this. If this has not been developed for version 12 then I would like to report this as a bug. I have attached the exported word document.

Auto update
Implement an option to select auto update the All New Adobe Captivate. I didn't even know the software was not updating automatically and that I need to check for updates manually.

Web Object: Add HTML5 Animations
Please add the option to insert HTML5 web animations under Web Object Source: System. Like but not only Adobe Animate projects or GSAP, Hype or other jQuery/JS animative applications. These files could be embedded in OAM or ZIP archive format like it is possible in Classic Captivate. This idea is closely related to the need of a Library in the All-New-Captivate.

Adjust slide appearance for imported question pools
I have a comprehensive exam with 17 question pools and 350 total questions. When you import into a question pool, Captivate does not use a master slide. There is no way to adjust the Correct and Incorrect states font and text color for all the question slides in a pool. If there was a master slide associated with the imported pool, the appearance of those states could be edited in the master and applied to all the questions in the pool. Alternatively, allow states to be copied and applied to an entire question pool or to all selected slides.
