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

Bookmark without interaction
To create a Replay action (one of my most visited blog posts) in this version you need to rely on a Bookmark at the start of the slide timeline. However that bookmark will just be used as target for a Jump to interaction. At this moment it is impossible to have a bookmark without assigning an interaction to it. And the dropdown list has no option 'No action' as was available in previous versions.
BTW when you insert a bookmark at the start of a slide with SVGs, those SVGs will temporarily disappear. You need to refresh to see them again.To create a Replay action (one of my most visited blog posts) in this version you need to rely on a Bookmark at the start of the slide timeline.

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.

Make zoom optional
When you hover over a card, it automatically zooms in. If you've used a headshot image, it's odd that it zooms in on their face. Zoom in on hover should be optional

Deleting item on Timeline
The only way to delete it at this moment is by using the right-click menu. I cannot use the Delete key on my keyboard. This may be due to the fact that I am NOT on a US keyboard, but on an AZERTY Belgian keyboard.

Cannot center the title on the Click to Reveal widget
On the other widgets you can select the widget and choose which components you want to include. If you hover over the component, like the Title, you can choose how you want to justify the text on the widget. You cannot do that on the Click to Reveal, hovering over the component reveals nothing and so the title is permanently left justified. You can center the text, but its still to the left side of the widget. This is the Default design. The other designs do have the title centered, but you should just be able to do it yourself as users may not want to use the other designs just to have a centered title.

layout change request - mobile view
On mobile the widget slider layout does not look user friendly. Navigational buttons should not appear left/right. Because there is no margin/padding Setting, there is no room left for customizing.

Feature request: quiz component missing
Right now, including a working quiz is only possible by using a Quiz Slide. For one-page scrollable courses this somehow works by building it with components (paragraph, option box, button, reporting + including in quiz/points), but takes time and is limited.
More options are missing to share points and set correct answers easily.
It would be great to insert a “full quiz” interactive component, same as by inserting full quiz slides.

Include accent marks when typing directly on Cp
I've been trying to type in text with accent marks, and Cp won't display it. It'll display just the text without the marks. This is important for us designers who work a lot on courses that in languages other than English. In my case, I work a lot with Spanish, and it's just unacceptable to be typing the text on another tool (MS Word, notepad, etc) so I do the copying and pasting into Cp. Please, fix this ASAP.

BUG - when retaking failed quiz, learners get locked out if they exit SCORM and re-enter
When a learner fails the quiz, and presses the retake button, they are getting frozen out if they exit the lesson and re-enter. This does not happen on the first attempt - only when retaking. We've had multiple learners report this error and there is no way to fix it via the settings, it's a bug in Captivate.
To clarify, review mode is not enabled. The actual submit button is greyed out and changed to the disabled state. Please see image.

QWERTY compatibilty
The Undo function is mapped to the AZERTY keyboard configuration instead of the QWERTY.
Actually, the undo function is assigned to the CTRL+W shortcut instead of the CRTL+Z. Crtrl+Z close the project.It's really annoing, as the undo function is a convention on Ctrl+Z on all QWERTY keyboard. It's occus in the french version of the new Adobe Captivate.

Bug - Mobile course layout and view does not match what I'm seeing within Captivate
When we design our courses in Captivate to look a certain way on Desktop, Tablet, and Phone, the published course design/layout does not match what we designed it to look like in Captivate. The mobile views have screwed up fonts and layout and don't appear the same as we designed them to be. What is the point of having the ability to view and design for different devices if that design doesn't carry over to those devises in the end?? I am including side-by-side screenshots of what a specific slide was designed to look like in Captivate and what it actually looks like on a mobile device.

[Feature] Support for custom slide templates in the Assets panel
Version: 13.0
Problem:
The Assets panel currently allows importing only Adobe-provided example slides. Unfortunately, there is no mechanism to manage and distribute custom slide templates within a team. This leads to unnecessary manual effort and makes it harder to maintain consistent layouts across larger projects and teams.Suggestion:
Extend the Assets panel to allow importing and centrally managing custom slide templates. Ideally, this should integrate with existing Creative Cloud mechanisms.Benefits:
- faster production through template reuse,
- consistent corporate design,
- improved team collaboration,
- reduced redundant work.4 votes -
Personal Asset Library + Personal Presets
I use Captivate and Camtasia. Camtasia has a personal asset library you can build out yourself. Like if you customize a certain effect you can save it as a preset but also if you upload an asset you can save it in your library for future use. Both of these features would be really helpful and save me a lot of time.

A more rodust video player without the need of the video slide.
With the amount of video training and the vast need for playing video libraries inside menus, I would love to see a Video Player, like the existing one, but with capabilities like:
Turn on/off closed captions from the button
The ability to select bookmarks/chapters from the player.
I know some of this can be accomplished from the video slide, but it will be better if it is done from the actual video player. A more robust video player with more options. More like a YouTube experience when young learners can identify better in the video section.4 votes -
Increase number of items allowed on Timeline widget
Please allow us to add more than 6 items/nodes to the timeline widget. An upper limit of 10-20 items on the timeline widget would be more reasonable. I understand that space may be limited with some of the current design options, but changes could be made to accommodate more items on the timeline.
For example, the design for the horizontal timeline could have a scroll arrow added to the screen, to allow users to scroll left and right and see further down the timeline. Alternatively, the design could be modified (or a new design added) to use a dedicated location or an overlay for all timeline callouts. This would allow for more items on the timeline without compromising on the space available for each callout.
Finally, the requested change could be made on vertical timelines (currently, the third design option) without affecting the layout at all. Since users would simply need to scroll further down to see additional nodes/callouts, this change would likely be easiest to implement.

This feature request is based on version 12.6 of the All-New Adobe Captivate, which currently has a limit of 6 items for the timeline widget, regardless of the design option selected.
