Highlight Fill Outer Area
The ability to fill the outer area of a highlight to draw specific attention to something on the software simulation screen. This was so useful in Captivate Classic. In our software simulations, we like to point out things to users on screen and this is the best way to do that.

Bug in Themes: Not importing custom theme
Frequently when importing my custom theme, it doesn't change the theme but tells me it is already imported. This usually requires reusing existing courses to create new ones with the correct theme. See attached image for the bugged behavior and the other showing the correct theme.

Import Customized Text Captions
Also allow the ability to import your own customizable captions and captions that point at the object users click or should've clicked. This is a huge selling point for our product and something we use. I can't even get customs to point at the object that the user is going to click, and we need to be able to show users what to click.

image optimization
Perhaps if you could add the ability to have the software optimize the images when publishing (set a max width and height or some type of way to measure it.) that would save space in the package - similar to powerpoint.

Control(Command)/Shift Select
If I have many blocks or slides I need to select to either copy or delete, I cannot control/command or shift select them to delete them all at once. With the slowness of the software (once you have thirty or more slides filled with blocks), this becomes a painstakingly slow task. It would be helpful to be able to select multiple slides or blocks at once.

Export/Import Preferences
There are no longer Global Preferences, which you could set from the Welcome screen in Captivate Classic. That is already very bad, but not being able to export a set of Preferences and import it in a new project is really CRITICAL for localisation. I always had a set of Preferences for French, Dutch, Italian, German ready to import if I needed to have Quizzing labels in that particular language. This is more important than missing the spell control for those languages.

Feedback messages issues
Due to the deprecation of Themes there are no object styles for the Feedback messages on quizzes. They have terrible color combinations which make them unreadable. It is possible to edit the style of the Shape/Text when finding the Hide button next to the barely visible because dimmed 'Caption' option. However I didn't find a way to transfer the new styling to all the feedback messages in the project. Is that possible?

I am trying out the all-new Adobe Captivate. It looks like I can only publish in HTML and not a SCORM file. Is this not possible?
When using the all-new Adobe Captivate to create training modules, I need to save the file as a SCORM 2004 file to be able to upload it to my LMS software. Is this capability not available in the new version as it is in the Classic?

unique feedback for each answer in multiple choice
I would like to have the ability to select different feedback captions depending on which multiple-choice answer was selected. This will make the feedback caption less generic and provide an opportunity to teach or reinforce during assessments as well.

Allow images to be moved anywhere on screen and then allow interactive elements to sit next to them
Currently, I can not have an image on the left and an interactive question or dropdown on the right - I can only have text and the interactive element shows under everything. These elements should be able to be next to each other.

All animations are buggy
When using animations for text options, they are extremely buggy. On a 15 slide training about 10% of the animations caused text to just not show up when looking at it with local preview. When the animations were removed, it worked fine. Sometimes animations would make a slide not even appear. It seems to be consistent with multiple animations.
Also when using animations, sometimes all the elements will show as the slide loads for a quick frame and then disapear. When not using animations this does not seem to happen.
When animation bulleted text with spaces between the bullets, the…

Increase number of pages allowed in carousel widget
I would like to be able to add more than 6 pages/items to the carousel widget. I understand that the tabs and flip cards widgets are limited due to the required space to display the tabs/cards, but the carousel does not have the same limitation.
For example, we have a training with 8 core principles that would be great for learners to click through each principle via the carousel, but I cannot use this interaction currently due to the limit of 6.
Having a maximum of 10 or 12 seems more appropriate and flexible. Or if possible, do not set…

SVGs should not be cropped to the placeholder icon
When using the SVG media block, custom SVGs are always cropped to the form and size of the placeholder which is cicular or square. That was never the case when using SVGs in older versions, and is also not the case for bitmap images, which can resize to the placeholder. I create the SVGs in Illustrator, and of course I will lose the chosen font if I don't convert text to vectors. That I can understand, but not the cropping
