Allow customizing scrollbar
The scrollbar on the side when something is taller than the standard window size is very hard to see and users may not recognize that it's there. Allow customization of this to make it stand out.
On the same vein, allow buttons that scroll to a fixed anchor on the slide if you want to be able to jump down

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.

Playbar covers content
If you set the feedback of a question slide to appear at the bottom, the Playbar covers the content. How did this EVER pass a QA review?

Bug - duplicating a slide with shortcut CTRL+D
I get an error while duplicationg a slide with several widgets and media objects (just pictures + text and just one short own made quiz, no videos) by pressing CTRL+D on keyboard (Windows OS, Charm Version EN 12.1.0.16).
Duplicating using mouse right click works.

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.

Allow for more editing on overlays and make scroll bars always visible
With the overlays, the text box for the body is very small. It'd be nice if we could adjust the size of the box.
Also, being that the scroll bar is not visible, even on hover over, learners may not know there is additional content. There should be an option to make the scroll bar always visible.

Allow for full editing of the quiz captions
Currently, the font, text size, and text color of the captions on the quiz slides cannot be edited. Through Theme Editor, the caption backgrounds can be changed for success and error, but not for incomplete. The message content can be edited through Preferences, but there is no way to change the font, text size, and text color. This poses accessibility issues as there is often not enough contrast for these messages.

Typewriter bugs
When applying an Entrance Typewriter animation on more than one text in a slide, and the texts are staggered on the timeline, only the first animation will appear. Sometimes it will only appear if the first text starts from the first frame. If you delete the animation on the first text, and keep it on the second text which appears later the animation never plays. It is a rather inconsistent bug, which I explored with multiple slides, Text Blocks and Media Blocks containing text components.

I just started testing the updated Captivate Classic. Why was the Preview next 5 slides removed?
In the updated Captivate Classic, the Prevew next 5 Slides option is no longer in the Preview drop-down. Why was that removed? If I have 100 slides and I want to check the timings on slides 90-95, I don't want to preview the entire project and try to guess where to click to start my preview. I can't preview just one slide at a time if I am checking the timings when switching from one slide to another.

Delay interactions by precise interval of time
In Captivate Classic you could create an advanced action that was "delayed by" some duration. I would like to have that option in All-New.

Drag and drop doesn't re-size correctly on smaller devices
Drag and drop doesn't re-size correctly on smaller devices. If you use it on a smaller phone, you can't see the drag options, only the drop boxes.

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
