  2. Unrestrict element placement and size.

    Currently unable to place button anywhere within the button field. All have to be together within the field, meaning limited design options. Also Icon buttons, should be able to re-size the icon within the button. Elements on screen, such as Text and Image, should be easily changed in size. At the moment, very restricted as to how the course will look. Classic Captivate was ideal as we had free rein over the design.

  3. allow text boxes to be resized

    text boxes are fixed width and cannot be resized to accommodate for other objects or portions of an image. this is completely restrictive. even text boxes that are inserted manually (vs choosing one of the very fixed slide templates) cannot be resized.

  5. change the hand cursor placement so it is over the click box, not instruction box

    When taking a course that includes a Training software simulation, the cursor changes to a hand when the learner hovers over the Instruction caption but not the click box. I don't see a way to change this, or just remove the hand cursor from appearing over the Instruction caption.

  8. Bug: The update to 12.6 and Tab widget content

    The newest update pushes all content left-aligned when published and in preview mode; however, when designing, it shows with the spacing.

  9. split closed captions

    I wish there was a way to position the playhead, then position the cursor in the caption, the split it into two captions. Even better, it would be great it if you could type in one caption, then set a number of words/characters and Captivate could split the caption up itself. Instead of this useful stuff, all we get is a little yield sign in the upper right telling us the huge caption will obscure the screen.

  10. Closed Captions Editing is Glitchy

    When working with closed captions, my cursor disappears and it is difficult to see where I am editing, if I am editing at all. I have to select all and click to get the cursor to show or to reposition it. After selecting all and clicking, I can use arrow keys to move it, but it no longer shows on screen.

  11. You should be able to adjust the settings of each device separately.

    You should be able to adjust all settings per device so you can ensure that designs looks good across all screens. I have found it pretty impossible to work with as it is at the moment.

    You should be able to adjust the settings of each device separately. It is really difficult to make it look good across all screens otherwise it is really difficult to make it look good across all devices. This is a pretty standard feature

  13. Add interaction to video grid based on video progress

    I would be helpful if we could add interactions to video grid blocks based on user progress. For example, I would like to add an interaction that enables a button, but only after the user has watched a certain percentage of each video in the grid.

  14. Click to Reveal widget issue when using custom images

    I have the latest version of the all-new Captivate (12.5) and I'm experiencing a bug with the "Click to Reveal" widget when trying to use custom images. To replicate this issue: In the click to reveal widget, add a custom image and change its display from "fill" to "fit", do the same for the "Hover" state. Try to preview. The only thing that shows in the page is "Something went wrong!"

    This error happens only when using "Fit" as the display, it works fine when using "Fill" so I'm guessing that it's something to do with the states.

  16. Add completion status for click-to-reveal for slide interactions

    . . . so that a slide interaction on a slide that has the click-to-reveal widget can depend on whether all the cards in the widget have been click.

    This is because the forward and back buttons are much more prominent than the "X" in the top right of the revealed card. Users don't see the "X" and mistakenly click on the back button instead trying to return to the front of the card. If you have completion status for the click-to-reveal widget, those buttons could be hidden until the user has clicked on all the cards.

  17. Blur does'nt work in preview

    There is an issue with the blur area in software simulations with Captivate 12.4. When viewing the preview, the blur area does not hide the element on which it was placed in the project. Same thing when changing the view for phone or tablet devices in the preview.

  20. Incorporate ability to add two more blocks side-by-side by adjusting the block width.

    Ability to add two or more blocks side-by-side by allowing to adjust the width of the blocks. This will help when navigation buttons or similar small elements are to be placed by the side of a text or other content blocks.
