Button Disabled State is not working
If I select the Button and show states, it shows a 'disabled' state, though it is grayed out and not selectable. If I use any action to set the button to disabled - the 'Normal' state is shown, though the button is not selectable (it does not have a hand icon and does not react to clicking it).
Maybe I am not understanding how the disabled state works? Why can't I change the appearance, though there is a disabled 'state' when the button is set to disabled?

Bug: Can't remove button text
Select any button that contains text. Double-click / highlight the text and press DELETE or otherwise attempt to delete the text. Click off the button. Text returns. The only way to remove text from the buttons - but it affects the size of the button and isn't the desired solution here - is to uncheck the text option in properties

undo button on drag and drops
the reset button is great but an undo option to undo the last thing you moved would be very helpful so you dont have to begin the interaction from the start.

Change margins of text in carousel widget.
Without an image the text spreads across the screen, which is far to wide of a line length for on-text reading. If there is already a way to do this, please make it more obvious. I spent way longer than I should have before giving up. Honestly, it's a terrible design that you can only change these margins on some element. Don't even get me started elements have handles that don't do anything (resize). It's as though the developer have no concern for standardized user interfaces, which is what really makes things intuitive and easy. Why must we constantly click…

Save assets I use repeatedly
Have the ability "favorite" captivate assets and sort 'favorites' for faster and easier access. It's very time consuming to scroll through 800+ images in Captivate assets to find the same image I use on repeat.

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.

Bug: Linked PDF will be implemented after first publishing
there is a bug using the action "open URL or File". If I select a PDF from my system and publish the course, everthing is fine and Captivate places the PDF in the output correctly. However when I publish the course again, the file is not included in the dirctory even if no changes have been made to the file.
So if you want to use the "open URL or File" action, you have to select the file again before each publication.

Bug - Cannot submit answers
Here is the adobe forum where I was asking about this and the steps I took to try and correct it: https://elearning.adobe.com/2023/08/captivate-12-unable-to-select-quiz-answer-in-published-course/#comment-353158
I have a quiz with 10 questions. You can see the quiz here: https://app.cloud.scorm.com/sc/InvitationConfirmEmail?publicInvitationId=0cfcc50d-f581-446a-a5e0-b41fc1d3e602
When you get to question 2, you cannot submit an answer. If you close the SCORM Cloud window and relaunch it, you can continue. But when you get to question 9, the same thing happens. If I am in my regular LMS, the same thing happens but the only way to continue is to switch to a new browser. I have no idea why…

Trigger actions for objects on other slides
I'm writing a conditional advanced interaction where I would be required to Show or hide a paragraph block on another slide depending on the value of a variable. I cannot reference this paragraph block because it's on another slide. This limitation means writing twice as many advanced interactions

Bug - Shortcut to move blocks
It would be helpful to move bocks with the arrow up and down. As a default shortcut, it could be Alt+UP and ALT+Down. The drag and drop feature is not always efficient.
