Height for Video Grid
It should be possible to specify a height for Video Grid elements in the Custom Styles, similar to Slide Videos:

Cache - should ask you to change your default locations instead of being duplicated
There should be a contradiction in the place in the preferences, where it says 'clear cache' -- the two file save locations -- one is the file location of the .cpt file, and the other is the cache file location. these should NOT be the same, nor should it be an option to be saved in the same place.
Why you ask?
Because I had my HUGE module saved to the same location in both of these locations. I cleared my cache. Then... POOF, my entire module - GONE!. Up in smoke. Disappeared.Nothing told me I was deleting my…

This program is unusable in its current state.
This program is unusable. Assets do not load, especially if you already have a system image loaded. Click to reveal does not work if you change image, or any settings (Something went wrong), Accordion crashes, you can't change image size so even if you have a small image it shows up huge in the slide. Hot spots, image is small and you can only size if horizontally. Slides and pictures resize from the editor to the preview. Its just ongoing. Unless you have a very simple course and you dont want to use widgets this program is basically useless. Going…

Simulation Blur Area Enhancements
In software simulations where private information is consistently visible (ex: Financial Institutions, Healthcare Systems, etc.), it is difficult to make the sizing of blur areas consistent across slides in Assessment & Training Software Simulations. This could be distracting for end users, and doesn't enable the quality I'd like to deliver. Can you add the ability to copy/paste these blocks, input pixel measurements, or some kind of setting to allow the blur to appear on subsequent slides?

have the hand cursor an option you can turn off like in classic
Hide the hand (cursor) when hovering over the hotspot so I can create a "find the error by clicking on it" type of knowledge check without the hand cursor giving away the location of the right answer.

Add support for smart quotes when typing text
When typing quotes in Captivate 12.6, all single and double quotation marks appear as "straight quotes" or "typewriter quotes." Improve the readability and display of text typed directly into captivate by automatically converting these punctuation marks into “curly” quotes (also known as ‘smart’ quotes).
While it is possible to insert the improved “smart” quotes by copying and pasting from a word processor (e.g., Microsoft Word), it is not always convenient to copy and paste text from another document when authoring a course directly in Captivate. Additionally, quoted text built into the software by default (for example: Select "Next" or press…

web link video interactions
When having a web link for a video and trying to interact with it it doesn't register, for example having a button disabled on Enter Slide and then enable it by the interaction "Objects Clicked" pointed at the video and that video is not a regular video but a web link video it doesn't work, needless to say that when using a regular video it does indeed work.

Duplicating a slide with generated text-to-speech causes a hard crash
If I have a slide that has generated text-to-speech, and then I try to duplicate the slide, I get a hard crash under Captivate 12.6.0.

Add a completion dialog to the "Remove Unused Items" function
The option "Remove Unused Items" is helpful and seems to do the job of cleaning up the project file and reducing its size. However, under Captivate 12.6.0 there is no completion dialog to inform the user that the function has been completed. A useful dialog might be something like the following:
All unused items have been removed from this project.
48 items were removed, reducing this project file size by 586k.

Fit Font to Slide
Kathleen and I think it would be beneficial when editing a theme to have an option that adjusts the font size to fit the content displayed on a slide. i.e. ensure that there are no line breaks for the currently selected content.

rewind audio or jump to bookmark
I want a user to be able to partially rewind the audio of a slide they were listening, without having to go back to the very beginning of the slide. They should be able to move back and forth, just like I can do in development mode, Captivate Classic, in a YouTube video, or like almost any audio/video player. Related to this, I would like to have a "Go to bookmark" action to go to a particular bookmark in the current (or other) slide. If the audio for a slide is long, it is very inconvenient to listen to go…

typewriter animation not playing/working
When trying to apply the typewriter animation to a subtitle of text, I am unable to "test" it or see it in my preview. The text just either doesn't show up at all, or it shows up all at once. This is a popular animation that shows to have lots of bugs. Please fix it.

LMS Score Report
Create a report like in Classic where I can see which slides/objects are reporting a score to the LMS. Sometimes you create a slide with a reportable score, then you duplicate it with the reportable score, and then forget to remove. Hard to keep track. Also show the score values so I can make sure the scores total correctly in my project.

Cards and LMS Reporting
I want to be able to give the user points for clicking on each of the cards l so I can see that they viewed each one. Currently it seems I can tag the image on the card as reportable if it's clicked, and I can tag the Title of the card as reportable, but if you just click within the card and not on the icon or a label direclty, seems I can't report the fact that the card was flipped as a score to the LMS. For example, if there are 4 cards, and the user clicked 3,…

Text-to-speech Missing on Software Simulations
It seems after a software simulation mouse click is added to your project, you can't add text-to-speech. The work around I found was to remove all mouse clicks, then add the text-to-speech, and then go back and add the mouse clicks. It shouldn't be that picky.

Allow videos to be split across multiple slides.
One of the main reasons we use Captivate is to allow LMS bookmarking in videos. We spread the video over multiple Captivate slides, so that it will return users more or less to where they left off. Our LMS doesn't do this. The new Cp no longer allows us to do this, so we continue using the old Cp.

Enabling a border around click boxes
Having a border option available around a click box would greatly help when trying to draw the attention of a learner.
Currently my only workaround is to create a highlight box, add a border to that, then place the click box over the top of it.
Having to do this needlessly doubles up steps needed for a slide.
