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 you would not be able to select an answer, it makes no sense to me.

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.

Bug - Application freezes when choosing a different folder for system image.
When selecting a system image, if the file explorer opens in an incorrect folder, the application freezes and becomes unresponsive. The application must then be force-closed using the system Task Manager

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.

Scalable HTML-5 publish setting for non-responsive projects
Currently, non-responsive projects in Captivate 13 do not have a publish setting (like Captivate Classic) for scalable HTML-5. This feature is very much needed as alot of your customers are still creating non-responsive projects with Captivate 13. This feature will also be needed when importing previous captivate classic non-responsive projects into Captivate 13 (feature is coming soon). Is a publish setting for scalable HTML-5 in the works already for non-responsive projects? If not this is a huge oversight and this feature needs to be incorporated as soon as possible.

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.

Add options like Double click and Right click for the Click boxes in simulation.
I think what challenge we are facing now is, if I have added a Click Box manually to the simulation slide, it does not show options for Double click or Right click functionality. As I always reuse old simulation by just replacing screenshots, these click box functionality I need most. Currently in 13 version it only work with single left click for the Click boxes.
I am adding an image that show the options for UI if you are going to add these functionalities

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.
