Languages for text to speech, windows language support.
In Classic Captivate its possible to add text to speech support for languages supported from Microsoft Windows own (local) library. That feature would be much needed i guess for a lot of people, and could be considered a quick fix for massive language support instead of having a Captive Voices implementation.

Animation on a block
It would be a time saver to be able to add an animation to a block. For now, only components of a block can have animation.
For example, if a block have a background, the block can't be animated.

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.

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.4 votes -
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.

Custom Completion Certificate Filename
It would be helpful to have the ability to set a custom download name for the certificate file instead of using the default “Captivate Certificate.” Many users aren’t tech‑savvy, and renaming downloaded files can be challenging. Allowing authors to define a filename that matches the course title would make the process much more user‑friendly.

Export slides to PDF
Please add a function that allows a Captivate project to be exported to PDF. Articulate does this and it is very helpful for leverating generative AI for grammar and spell checks.

Fix the closed captioning button on the playbar
On slides containing videos with captions, the closed captioning button on the playbar grays out and users cannot turn the captions on or off. However, the button works normally on slides that contain only narration with captions and not videos. For more context, imagine slide 1 contains narration with captions (no video), and a user clicks the CC button to turn the captions on. The user then goes to slide 2, where there’s a video with captions. Those captions also appear, but the user cannot turn them off because the CC button is grayed out. Any assistance you could offer…

Include the Captivate 2019 video playbar re-wind and forward function in Captivate 13.0
Captivate 13.0 does not have video re-wind and forward functions. These functions are important for projects that require the learner to fully understand and confident in a process before moving on in the project. These missing functions are standard in video display

Add options like Double click and Right click for the Click boxes in simulation.
I think what challenge we are facing now is, if I have added a Click Box manually to the simulation slide, it does not show options for Double click or Right click functionality. As I always reuse old simulation by just replacing screenshots, these click box functionality I need most. Currently in 13 version it only work with single left click for the Click boxes.
I am adding an image that show the options for UI if you are going to add these functionalities

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…

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…

The actual callout size when previewing or publishing the course is considerably larger than what is shown in Captivate. Padding settings are not respected.
