[Feature] Flexible Overlay System for Buttons, Links, and Slides
Problem:
Currently, overlays in Captivate can only be triggered via bookmarks, and each slide overlay can only be used once. Local, reusable overlays directly on the slide do not exist. This limits flexible interactions and reusable designs.Suggestion:
- Trigger overlays via clicks on buttons, images, or text links, without using bookmarks.
- Allow multiple uses of overlay slides, so standard popups can be used multiple times.
- Custom/Local Overlays created and displayed directly on slides (similar to the "Click to Reveal" widget, but freely definable and reusable). Various types could be possible:
- Dialog or info windows…2 votes -
Export Project Content and Captions
I have discovered that the Export project content and captions workflow is missing an important text component that should be corrected as soon as possible. The various feedback captions for question slides seem to be missing from the resulting Word document. I guess it would be considered a bug as this is a major omission for the software.

Fix the TOC Drag and Drop Grouping Feature
We are experiencing inconsistent performance with the TOC editability. It often crashes or does not work. Specifically, when trying to drag slides into groups, we are not able to drop the slide into the group. We also experience crashing occasionally when trying to rename items in the table of contents. We have gotten it to work in one project, but are having inconsistent results with other projects.

Ability to Widen the images in a Checkbox
I am using images in a checkbox but I am not able to widen the checkbox to fit in a wide sized image. The only size available to me is something almost square. Would it be possible for a checkbox or the multiple choice question slides extend in size depending on the image chosen? I am attaching an example that shows the issue. The first image is a bit small for users to see but if it could be extended to the right, it would be a lot easier. The image attached is just an example.

Enable changing order of carousel objects without remaking them.
In the carousel widget (and others like it, such as flip card), allow reordering of elements without completely remaking them, perhaps with drag-and-drop.

Accessibility Bug: Screen readers announce radio buttons incorrectly
Two primary issues.
If using the question slide template, the multiple choice questions always announce as a group of checkboxes with screen readers, even if they are radio buttons. The toggle between single answer and multiple answer changes the state visibly, but not programmatically.
If using the Radio Group interactive component, the radio buttons correctly announce as radios, however, when navigating to the next radio option, the screen reader announces the previously selected option again in addition to the new option.
Example:
A radio group with options A, B and C.With JAWS or NVDA navigate to Option A, "Option…

Carousel Widget and LMS Reporting
I want to be able to give the user points for clicking on the items of the carousel so I can see that they viewed each one. Currently it seems I can only report if they click on the arrow. If I have 4 items, and they keep clicking the arrow (say 6 times), do they keep getting points? Seems I should be able to report on the card states instead. If they only click on 2 of 4 cards, I want the LMS to report 2 as a reportable score.

Fix closed caption importing.
When I import closed captions, it creates captions that say "no audio" to fill all the blank space. This more or less renders the functionality useless.

Why can't you choose 1 image? The button icon shows a layout that you can not achieve.
If you look at the WIDGET to add - it shows an image on the left, and copy on the right. The Design option does not allow for 1 image. I want 1 Image and copy to the left like the widget. Please fix!!!!

Add Down One/Up One arrows to the slide navigator for stepwise rearrangement of slides.
It would be nice to have down one/up one arrows in the slide navigator to allow stepwise rearrangement of slides up or down in the stack. This is especially important since the drag-and-drop slide rearrangement is so buggy and imprecise.

retain initial closed caption text for text to speech
If I navigate to another slide while typing up my closed captions for text to speech, I lose all the input text unless I generate the audio. It would be nice if the captions were to retain themselves for when I return to that slide.

Rename Text to Speech Audio Tracks
Would like to be able to give audio a custom name, both in the timeline and when exported. "Text to Audio1" not very helpful.

BUG: 12.5 Accordion Widgets broken in 12.6
I have a project built in 12.5 with multiple accordion widgets that worked fine. After updating to 12.6, Captivate gives an error message "Something went wrong while content block insertion." and the widget is missing from those slides. For readability below, Slide A has the accordion widget built in 12.5 that I'm trying to get to work in 12.6.
If I try to Preview the project from Slide A, after clicking to start, the window goes gray and it just says "something went wrong!" in small text in the top left. Starting the Preview from a different slide and navigating…

Improve responsiveness in Drag & Drop
The responsiveness in the Drag & Drop widget is inexistent!
- The title and body text are on the top of each other in Tablet and Mobile mode
- The drag objects get very small when they are images
- The drag objects turn into numbers when they are text
- If drag objects are text, even in desktop mode they will be on top of each other inside the drag area, so you can't drag them to another place
- Using transparent images in the drag objects will make them crash
- you can't configure the positioning of components properly, so the final result is…

Improve the branding blocks Header and Footer
A few improvements that can be done in the branding blocks:
- Implement the option of making it persistent, so if the user scrolls through the content, the header or/and footer stays frozen above all the content.Ability to copy and paste the building blocks from one project to another, just so you don't have to remake all the configurations again in each of the projects. I have a dozen of projects that use branding blocks and need to build each one from scratch, this is annoying!
Include the header and footer in the Theme Editor, so when you apply…

Bug: The update to 12.6 and Tab widget content
The newest update pushes all content left-aligned when published and in preview mode; however, when designing, it shows with the spacing.
