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.

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.

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.

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.

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…

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Quizzing Preferences
There is still a category Quizzing under Preferences. However some of the preferences have been moved to the Properties panel of the Results slide: Attempts on quiz level, Pass/Fail actions etc... They used to be in the Quizzing Preferences under Pass/Fail.
However you can build a 'Quiz' by using only scored objects (formerly labeled as Custom questions). In that case the Results slide is NOT added automatically and you don't have access to its Properties. It would be better to move Pass/Fail again to Quiz Preferences.3 votes -
Shortcut key Preferences
BUG: the shortcut key to open Preferences is CTRL-,
That shortcut key is NOT functional on any other keyboard than the US keyboard. Why not get back to the original shortcut key which always worked in previous versions: SHIFT-F8.
Using a punctuation mark in a shortcut key is always a bad idea, because its location is not fixed, depends on keyboard.
BTW I use an AZERTY keyboard, thanks for fixing the beta bug CTRL-Z.3 votes -
Quiz slide Multiple Choice, Multiple Answers, Partial scoring Penalty missing
BUG: there is no way to enter a penalty in this case.

When allowing for multiple attempts in drag and drop, provide a 'try again' caption.
Provide a ' try again ' caption when allowing for multiple attempts in drag and drop. Also when you have an initial attempt that is incorrect, provide the option to automatically reset the drag sources back to the original positions.

Bug - Short Answer question slide is broken if you include a quotation symbol " in your answer
I had a short answer question where the answer was "1"=20'" and I kept getting a "Something Went Wong" error. After recreating the question several time, I eventually started going one character at a time to see if there was an issue with the answer. As soon as I removed the quote symbol the question began to function as intended.

Edit transitions on Quiz buttons
For some reason when you select the submit button on a quiz you cannot edit the interaction to set up a transition. Well, at least not directly. I found that if you select the button and click back to one of your main slides and then select the interactions panel, when you return to the quiz, the interaction panel for the quiz button is open and you can edit it. You can then keep moving to the next slide and editing each one. This seems like a weird gatekeep for no reason, you should just be able to edit the…
