  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  8. allow width of photo v. text to be adjusted in Drap and Drop interaction

  11. Tabs/buttons initial state

    Maybe I'm missing something, but I am not able to initially set the first (or any) tab to "selected". In preview or published, it shows the content of the first tab, but there's no indication what tab it belongs to.

    This goes for regular buttons as well - how can I set the initial state to something other than default?

  12. Certificate download file size and missing "save as" option

    The "Download" button saves a file with fixed name "captivate-certificate-[n].pdf" with an index n.
    1. ICan the user please be prompted with a system dialog to save with a file name and to a location of his/her choice?
    2. The PDF contains a rasterized image of poor quality (see text sample attached) but astonishing size (~5 MB). Can the file please be configured to be as small as possible, with a printable text quality as fitting for a respectable certificate?

  13. Add a pause button option

    Please add the ability to easily add a PLAY/PAUSE button option in variables or slide interactions AND add the option into the TOC. The reason I am asking for BOTH options is that when I have a course that requires learners to view all slides, I need to turn off TOC because it currently allows learners to skip ahead/bypass slides so I need the ability to easily create a button/action allowing learners to pause play on any individual slide. (If I am missing something or there is an easy way to create the button/action - please share!)

  14. 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.

  15. Merged Actions to be Default

  16. Forced navigation in any button

    It would be nice if we could ensure that learners do not skip lessons to complete course and allow learners to navigate to the next slide, page, or content only after they finish interacting with all the sections in a button (not only in widget). I know it's available in widget, but it would be nice to add it to any button.

    Bug report for Adobe Captivate 12 x64 ver. 12.3.0 installation: I attempted to install Adobe Captivate 12_x64 – Ver 12.3.0, and have been waiting for at least 30 minutes with no progress.

    Thanks,

  18. The Captivate version 12.3.0.12 will not allow the use of bullet or numbering format. It seems to be a major glitch within the last update.

    Fix the bug that happens when you try to use bullets or numbering formats within a Captivate 12.3.0.12 content section.
