  1. Create a means to import Adobe Captivate Classic CPTX files

    At least most of it so that we don't have to re-create the wheel.

  2. Ability to Import SRT File for Video Closed Captions

    Why do we have to manually enter closed captioning for the video slide? Or, have to figure out a work-around by 'baking' closed captioning into the original MP4 file? It would be great to have the ability to import the SRT file and attach it to a video slide (whether as an event video or synchronized). And turn on/off the closed captioning when desired.

  3. Navigation to bookmark on other slides doesn't work

    To replace Micro-navigation by using bookmarks, you can add a bookmark on another slide with Jump to Bookmark. However that is not functional because it always will play that other slide from the start instead of from the bookmark. If this functionality iis only possible for bookmarks on the same slide, the tab 'More Bookbmarks' should be dimmed, not available.

  4. Direct access to the Assets

    That feature existed in previous versions. Now you can only access all assets from the popup when inserting an item which can use an asset and click on Assets. As already asked since Assets panel were introduced: allow to add personal assets. I often use Adobe stock for all Adobe applications but since we still have no access to the CC Libraries...sighing

  5. Dynamic bookmarks

    First goal of 'bookmarking' is to enable micro-navigation. However New Captivate can only create static bookmarks. It is not possible to create dynamic bookmarks generated on runtime. This was possible using the Movie Control category of system variables combined with Movie Information variables. Examples for the Adobe forum:
    1. Having a button on a long (video) slide allowing to move to a Help slide, and come back to resume the video where it was left.
    2. Having a button which allows to navigate forward or back for a time segment (like 20secs) on a long slide whenever it was clicked.

  6. widget

    We had created a series of free Widgets (Captivate Classic terminology - not related to widgets in Captivate). The Captivate Classic widget functionality was great, because it allowed us to create a custom UI and include JS to the published file. Our widgets are here: https://envolvemedia.com/custom-applications/#captivate

    A simple example is the Save As Widget. The Captivate developer could use their own button instance that when clicked would just save the contents of that slide to a PDF or Image on the end-users machine.

    Captivate [New] doesn't allow for these widgets. Even creating a "Custom Design" does not support setting custom…

  7. Buttons in widget slides (bugs)

    When I select an option in the DESIGN OPTIONS for a timeline slide, the button don't get "pill" shape, instead it gets the "circle" shape.

    When I try to apply a linear gradient, I have little to no control on the direction of the gradient.

    Even if I manage to apply the style, it seems I can't apply it automatically to all the other buttons.

    Also, if I'm required to add more custom buttons, could you please give the possibility to replace them with .SVG AND allowing us changing the size? We can hardly read the icons in the actual…

  9. Add functionality to the New Captivate to export a single MP3 file from multiple slides

    The previous version of Captivate allowed for a single MP3 file to be exported from multiple slides, each w/ individual MP3 files (i.e., "podcast"-like file). Is this on the radar for New Captivate? It's my primary use case and very disappointing that it's not available.

  10. blur

    Blur does not seem to be working properly. Blur is very subtle for most values. It's not until 50 that anything really happens. Then maybe 80 for the next. But the most significant is between 90 and 91. This occurs for all images and anything that blur applies. Seems like a bug that blur isn't very significant until 91. By then, it's too significant of a difference. 91 is probably appropriate, but the lower values should increase blur more

  12. Enable rounded corner in theme customization

    Please, could you enable the option to add rounded corners in theme customization? Where in the "Adobe Captivate>HTML>index.html" I can inject or force the same value for rounded corners or to edit the border style?

    Thanks

  14. Captions in Multi-state objects & auto caption from audio file

    First: Captions should be generated automatically from an audio file as they are in Premiere Pro. We should not have to type in every word of a transcript in order to caption a project.

    Second: There must be a way to caption multi-state objects that have audio files attached that are triggered from a bookmark interaction on the timeline. This is an essential accessibility feature. It was missing in Captivate Classic as well. Fix this please.

    Thank you.

  16. Drag and Drop Widget doesn't calculate score properly when added to reporting.

    The scoring for the Drag and Drop widget doesn't get properly added to the scores from other questions. Most of the time it adds a 0 even if you answer the question properly. Sometimes it adds a 1 regardless of what you enter. I have had to leave these questions out of the scoring totals for consistent results.

  18. email hyperlink

    When I enter an email to hyperlink, it adds https:// to it and when the auto-filled email pops up when clicked, it won't send due to it being the wrong address. Not sure if this is user error on my part but I have tried everything to get this to work as well as the webpage links.
