  2. Find and Replace

    Like in previous versions of Adobe Captivate, a search for text and the ability to replace that text would be an essential feature in this application.

  3. Spell Check

    Captivate Classic allowed spell-checking text, including closed captions. Let's bring this functionality back in the all-new Captivate!

  4. Allow us to change the color of a text hyperlink

    In earlier updates I was able to manually change the color of clickable text links so that it matched my client's branding. It would be nice to have control over how these look, and it would be exceptional if the appearance of text hyperlinks was something we could add to the theme editor.

    Not sure what changed, but now I have to explain to my clients that this functionality was somehow removed, and we have to deal with ugly purple links instead of sticking to our brand colors.

  5. Hyperlink improvement

    Hyperlinks do not always work. Our policy link looks like this and Captivate 12 doesn't accept it: https://epm.azahcccs.gov/EligibilityPolicyManual/index.html#t=Policy%2FChapter_400_AHCCCS_Medical_Assistance_Programs%2FMA0413.htm

    If I convert it to a tiny UTL, that type of link does work. https://tinyurl.com/EPM413

  6. Custom Bullets

    Being able to customize bullets and not just using a preset bullet, by allowing uploading of an image or SVG to be used as a bullet.

  7. Align text and button horizontally

    I'm not sure if it's a bug, but I've been trying to get a line of text and a button aligned horizontally (text with button NEXT to it, NOT underneath). It's impossible. Even with a design template that shows horizontal alignment (see screenshot) - it just doesn't work. This is really frustrating; it's such a simple thing but impossible in Cp 12 (I have the latest 12.4).

  8. More formatting options Text to make the text look like buttons

    It is already possible to assign an action to text so it effectively functions as a button.

    I propose adding a customizable box outline and color to text could enhance its functionality and aesthetics, providing users with more flexibility in creating customized buttons and layouts.

    Then u could make the text match the other captivate buttons.

  9. Text block

    When long passages of text in a text block are included and you want to change or add something, the cursor jumps every time to the end of the text even though I clicked at the top. I then always have to scroll back up. The text should not jump every time I clicked inside or outside of the text block.

  10. Please consider to include an equation editor in Adobe Captivate 12.5.

    Please consider to include an equation editor in Adobe Captivate 12.5. It is very common to show equations in technical presentations, eduacation in engineering and other technical areas.

  11. Click Box fail message does not allow you to remove text when an image is used

    If you select an image as a click box fail state, you can not delete the text in the box so it has no text at all. Any attempt to remove the text, defaults it back when I click out of the failed message box. I don't always need text.

  13. Combi characters not accepted anywhere

    In previous versions this was a limitation for international users with a non-US keyboard only in widgets/learning interactions. But now it is the case for all text and this really bad. A combi character is where you need to use two keys to get the result, which is the case for most non-US keyboards needing a much larger set of characters. One example in Dutch: when two identical characters are in sequence but need to be pronounced both separately we need to put two points at its top (similar to the umlaut in German): 'creëren' has them on the second…
