1. Need an easy way to edit the visual elements of question and answer slides

   In Captivate 13.0, the UI lets you change fonts, colors, and other elements associated with question and answer slides. However, when you preview or publish, these adjustments are overridden by the CSS in the pre-defined Design Options. You can spend a lot of time making design adjustments that don't do anything.

   While there appears to be a tech support article regarding editing the Design Option CSS and JSON files, we should not have to work at that level to simply make a visual change.

   Also, many of the Design Options do not meet WCAG standards for contrast and accessibility, including light brown checkmarks on on tan background, or green text on a darker green background.

   https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/

   Recommendations and request:
   - Allow direct changes to question and answer slide design elements through the Captivate UI.
   - Allow the user to "Save as...." those changes to Design Options to easily create new and persistent variations on Design Options without dropping to text editing of JSON and CSS files.

3. Quiz Review locks out retake

   If a learner fails a quiz and then they review the quiz and use 'Show Answers' button it locks out options to either retake or continue leaving the Learner in limbo.

   In this scenario it should be optioned that they can retake the quiz or if this is not the wanted outcome then Continue with the failed results recorded to LMS.

4. Fix the PowerPoint Import

   I have a PowerPoint presentation with graphics, text that is bolded and/or italicized, and line drawings.

   When I have Captivate import the presentation, it absolutely WRECKS bold or italicized texts within a sentence, and makes line drawings unintelligible.

   I have used Captivate as my tool of choice for years.
   I sat on my Fortune 500 company's evaluation team when the "new and improved" Captivate came out.
   WE DROPPED CAPTIVATE FROM USE because of poor functionality.

   Now I have my own company and do work for clients. I am evaluating Captivate for several new projects -- but I am not seeing a viable product right now.

   I have a couple more days of testing to do, so perhaps I will find a "nugget", but when I have to argue with a tool to get "somewhat" what I want, I will find another tool.

   Captivate WAS very intuitive and easy to use. It appears (and this was the consensus at my old company) that software engineers AND NOT INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGNERS decided how the new Captivate "should" work, and built an engineer's version.

   Engineers SHOULD NOT design interface elements. (BTW, I am an engineer.) The END USER needs to tell us HOW the process works so that we can build a system that does that -- with GUIDANCE from users on the "whiz-bang widgets".

6. QWERTY compatibilty

   The Undo function is mapped to the AZERTY keyboard configuration instead of the QWERTY.
   Actually, the undo function is assigned to the CTRL+W shortcut instead of the CRTL+Z. Crtrl+Z close the project.

   It's really annoing, as the undo function is a convention on Ctrl+Z on all QWERTY keyboard. It's occus in the french version of the new Adobe Captivate.

7. Bug - Mobile course layout and view does not match what I'm seeing within Captivate

   When we design our courses in Captivate to look a certain way on Desktop, Tablet, and Phone, the published course design/layout does not match what we designed it to look like in Captivate. The mobile views have screwed up fonts and layout and don't appear the same as we designed them to be. What is the point of having the ability to view and design for different devices if that design doesn't carry over to those devises in the end?? I am including side-by-side screenshots of what a specific slide was designed to look like in Captivate and what it actually looks like on a mobile device.

8. Bug - audio loading is delayed and then cuts off prematurely.

   We are having problems when we have slide-level audio. It does not begin playing at the beginning of the timeline for the slide (appears to be a loading delay) and then once it does load, the audio will cut off prematurely because the slide has reached the end of its timeline. We have been able to do a workaround with extending the duration of the slide by a significant amount and then placing a button on the slide that the user can push to advance to the next slide without having to wait for the timeline to complete, but this is an issue that should be corrected.

10. Bug: "Apply appearance" is only partial

    When copying the appearance between instruction boxes, only certain aspects of the boxes are copied (such as border and background colour) while others are not (font face and box corner radius).

11. Bug: Layer blur area under instructions

    I have instructions and a blur area in my simulation, and if I move them to the same place the blur area covers the instructions. What would be the point of having instructions if I wanted them blurred? I can't think of a case where one wouldn't want the instructions to be on top of the blur area.

12. Review rendering of transparent background images

    Transparent images in PNG or SVG format when used as background are showing a thin line like it was being tiled, even if the tile option is not selected.

    In the example attached, I have a simple SVG with an angled corner used as background, and on the bottom-right corner it displays a line of the same colour.

    The same happens with PNG images.

    The ability to remove the quiz feedback captions. In 2019 you can drag them away from the slide to hide them. "Submit All" simplify the process for a range of quiz questions. Allow the selections of buttons that meets the design requirement. such as just a "back" and "next" button on each slide to navigate through the quiz. On the final quiz slide show the "Submit All" button to submit all the answers in one go.

    TOC Navigation Control Missing in New Adobe Captivate
    Issue Summary:
    In the new version of Adobe Captivate, Table of Contents (TOC) items are enabled from the beginning, allowing users to skip slides without completing them. This undermines the learning flow and defeats the purpose of structured eLearning.
    Expected Behavior:
    There should be an option or variable to disable TOC items initially, and enable each item only after the corresponding lesson or slide is completed.
    Actual Behavior:

    All TOC items are accessible from the start.
    Learners can skip ahead without engaging with the content.
    No built-in setting or variable is available to control TOC item visibility based on slide completion.

    Impact:
    This behavior allows learners to bypass essential content, which is not acceptable in any structured learning environment. Without this control, the new Adobe Captivate version is not suitable for compliance or mandatory training modules.
    Suggested Fix:
    Introduce a feature that:

    Allows TOC items to be enabled sequentially, based on slide or lesson completion.
    Provides a variable or toggle to manage TOC item visibility dynamically.
