  4. Slider Interaction

    Create an interaction where users can use a slider to show information. The slider would be something like what is in the image and can move back and forth a certain number of points. Information would display below it based on where you move it to.

  5. Bug: when replacing video by shorter video, slide duration is not adapting

    Using Slide video as only (media) object on a slide. On adding a video, timeline of the slide will get same duration as the video. However when replacing the video by a shorter video, the slide timeline will not adapt, keeps its original lenght. I am on version 12.2.
    BTW trimming a video leads to same problem, but causes lot more issues, learned to use Rush for trimming now.

  6. Bug: Content width of widgets not adjustable

    Some of the widgets cannot be adjusted in terms of the content width. If I use for example the tabs widget (Design Option), the width is preset to 92%. When I change the width for example to 80% the changes are adopted to the widget on the slide. But if change the slide an come back, the widget is agein displayed in 92% although the width value is set to 80%

    The card widget (Verticle, bottom text) behaves the same.

  8. Allow W and H fields of Custom to actively change as you manually size an application window.

    When recording a software simulation in CpC, the width (W) and height (H) fields in the Snap to: Custom Size option actively change when manually sizing the application window. This allows us to visually verify the size of the application window. In new Captivate, the W and H fields in the Size: Custom option remain static when sizing the application window. (Note: Due to an application / Citrix issue, we have to manually size our application windows when recording software simulations. Simply entering the dimensions in the W/H fields does not work.)

  9. Radio / Checkbox not showing as selected in Captivate Classic

    I noticed today that the radio and checkbox buttons are not showing as selected with my course using the Safari browser. I suspect this is a bug.

  10. Translations from one language to another

    A great feature in keeping with the Sneak Peeks we were shown at ALS would be translating on-screen text from one language to another. In Canada, we are required by law to make learning available in both French and English. Automating as many of these processes would be beneficial. A one button solution for an entire project would be great.

  11. Make default quiz buttons picked up by focus area for keyboard accessibility

    The default quiz buttons can be tabbed through with a keyboard, but after you turn the focus setting on, the focus area does not appear on the default quiz buttons-- this means to make a truly accessible quiz you have to use custom quiz buttons. Please fix this.

  14. Hot keys for Radio Buttons

    When you do incorporate hot keys, it is vital that hotkeys are available for radio buttons to use the keyboard to select A, B, C, D on question slides, which was not available in Captivate Classic.

  17. Bug_Active Adobe fonts not available in Captivate 12 but were in 2019

    I designed templates in Captivate Classic with Georgia Pro and Sans Source Pro typefaces and using specific Semibold and Regular font style.

    I've verified that the fonts are active in my account on Adobe.com, in Captivate 12 I only have access to Georgia (and only Bold, no semibold) and no Source Sans Pro at all, only Source Sans 3, italic.

    Is there something specific I should do in the setup to make sure all the brand fonts are there?

  18. More support for 'Hide during publish'

    I wanted to have an object NOT show when the slide was first displayed. You can 'Hide during publish' some items like buttons, but not others like Media blocks. As others have noted, if you use a Slide Enter trigger to hide an object, it is still shown before it is hidden, making that slide enter triggers unusable

  19. Add GIF as a supported filetype for Image Background on the slide

    If you use a media block, GIF files are listed in the filetypes dropdown. However, if you use 'Image background' for the slide, GIF files are not listed in the filetypes dropdown. If you manually enter the path to a GIF, they import as expected.

  20. Correct Help page

    Help page is very confusing. There are some typos (like instead of link). It also indicates that you can add reporting to THE WIDGET whereas Reporting is only available for the components on the Overlays. The fact that Reporting is almost always past the bottom of the monitor and needs scrolling is not very helpful.
