Drag and Drop Widget doesn't calculate score properly when added to reporting.
The scoring for the Drag and Drop widget doesn't get properly added to the scores from other questions. Most of the time it adds a 0 even if you answer the question properly. Sometimes it adds a 1 regardless of what you enter. I have had to leave these questions out of the scoring totals for consistent results.

undo button on drag and drops
the reset button is great but an undo option to undo the last thing you moved would be very helpful so you dont have to begin the interaction from the start.

Spacebar as shortcut
In all Adobe applications which have a Timeline, the Spacebar is used as shortcut key to play/pause the slide. That worked also perfectly in previous versions of Captivate, if focus was on the Timeline panel.
In version 12 the behavior is inconsistent, sometimes it works, sometimes not at all. Once you switch to using the Play/pause buttons it looks like you lose the focus on the Timeline and Spacebar will not be functional. Rather frustrating to unlearn the use of the Spacebar after almost two decades.4 votes -
Input Field needs fully resizable option to accommodate simulation screens
The input field needs to be fully re-sizable to mimic a simulation environment like what can be done in Captivate 2019. Now an input field sticks out and cannot be formatted to match the simulated application environment

Zooming in should keep focus on selected item
This is an old pain inherited from previous versions. Default view percentage is 'Best Fit' which is great. But when increasing the percentage to focus on a detail (like a button) I tend to select that item first, and expect by zooming in that the selected item is kept in focus. That used to be the case until version 8 or 9, but was also lost in CP2019. It is very frustrating.

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.

Bug: "include in quiz" function does not send any points to LMS
By unsing the "include in quiz" function with 1 point and setting export reporting to LMS to Quiz does not trigger any event in LMS. I noticed the setting "points for quiz" cannot be set to a number of points, just can be switched from points to percent.

I need to know how to import a Classic Captivate file
I am able to select a PPT file for import. But, when I choose to import a Classic Captivate file, I receive a beta message and then click Continue. Next I just receive a Captivate Classic Import (Beta) message that is spooling. I don't ever receive the window to select a file to import. Please help! My Captivate version is 13.1.1.200

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.

Make it easier to change AI-generated voiceover word pronunciation
I'm finding it difficult to get the text-to-speech to pronounce certain words correctly. Currently, I want it to say "lead" (the metal - rhymes with "bed"), but the AI-generated voice will only pronounce it "lead" (to guide, rhymes with "seed"). When I type in "led" to try and correct this, the voiceover spells it out (as in, "LED" light). Is there a way to adjust the pronunciation? If not, this would be a helpful feature.

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.
