Bug?--drag and drop target states
When I add a state to a D&D target, I get an error when previewing. I can add states to the drag objects, however.

Preview starting always on slide 1 (v12.3)
in the new update v12.3 the preview always starts on the first slide and not the current active slide, as before. It would be great, if it starts at the current (active) slide again.

Fix text formatting bugs
It's great that there are three distinct text sizes for desktop/tablet/mobile. However, I believe there's a bug with the way these display.
If a text element contains formatted text (e.g. bold, italics), the break point for the size change seems to happen at a different time to the rest of the text.
For users, this manifests as seemingly random paragraphs or headings displaying as smaller/larger than the rest of the text (see screenshot, where all text shown has the same style settings in Captivate. The only difference is whether the paragraph contains any words in bold/italics.

Film strip
When you click on a slide in the film strip can you apply a larger stroke to highlight the slide? It would make it easier to see what slide you are on.

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…

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).

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.

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.

I am unable to export text-to-speech audio from Captivate. This was a problem for us in Captivate 12 and continues to be a problem with 13
I am unable to export text-to-speech audio from Captivate. This was a problem for us in Captivate 12 and continues to be a problem with 13. I attended the Adobe Learning Summit and spoke to the developers about it, but have not received a resolution.

Crashing during AI Avatar
I have had a couple of attempts to create an AI Avatar for an imported PowerPoint. I was recording for YouTube at the time, submitted the crash using the crash report but thought it might be beneficial to see what I was doing at the time.

When I create trainings, they work just as expected on Windows but if someone on a Mac opens it the text turns into a different font and is not matching my company branding as I designed it to.

feedback caption missing
I have a MCQ slide with multiple answers. If I do not select enough answers, but the ones that I do select are correct, there is no feedback caption shown. It moves straight to the next slide.
eg.
my MCQ has 5 possible answers
of those 5 answers, 3 are correct
when answering the question, if i only select 1 or 2 correct answers and nothing else, the feedback caption does not show.1 vote -

The new Adobe Captivate version lacks the ability to restrict the video seekbar—a key feature for ensuring learner engagement and compliance in eLearning. In many training scenarios, it's important to prevent users from skipping ahead or fast-forwarding through video content. Ideally, the seekbar should be locked until the video has been watched completely. Once the video is fully viewed, users can then be allowed to fast-forward or rewind for review purposes. This functionality was available in Adobe Captivate Classic and is essential for maintaining the integrity of learning paths. Please consider adding this feature to the new version to support…

The new Adobe Captivate version lacks a critical feature for eLearning: the ability to restrict the Table of Contents (TOC) and Playbar navigation. In effective eLearning design, it's essential to control access to the TOC and the Next button to ensure learners fully complete each slide before progressing. This functionality was available in Adobe Captivate Classic and is a must-have for tracking learner engagement and completion. Please consider reintroducing this restriction feature in future updates.
