Restrict Navigation until Slide End
Many stakeholders request that navigation be turned off until the slide/audio completes, i.e., forced navigation. In order to accomplish this currently, I have to either create my own navigation buttons or hide the playbar upon slide enter and show it at the end of the slide. The latter option isn't feasible because users can no longer toggle closed caption on/off while audio is playing. Both workaround options are time consuming.
I propose adding a feature that allows the developer to disable only the forward button (not the entire playbar) until the slide audio completes.

Add ability to restrict the 'drag card' area so it is NOT MOVEABLE
Currently the user can move the area for the options all over the screen and OFF the screen, meaning if they accidentally move it it can cause them to get stuck in the activity unable to complete the activity.

Align text and button horizontally
I'm not sure if it's a bug, but I've been trying to get a line of text and a button aligned horizontally (text with button NEXT to it, NOT underneath). It's impossible. Even with a design template that shows horizontal alignment (see screenshot) - it just doesn't work. This is really frustrating; it's such a simple thing but impossible in Cp 12 (I have the latest 12.4).

Replace old audio file in project asset with new
When I want to use an updated audio file that I have saved under the same file name as previously used audio file, Captivate doesn't replace the old one (at least not in the timeline). I have to save the updated audio file under a different file name. Small detail, but in other Adobe products (e.g., Premiere Pro), I replace the old file with the new one (same name) in the source folder and voila - replaced in my timeline...

responsive design - Complaint:
I find it incredibly irritating that I can’t create my eLearning content in a non-responsive format. Transitioning to the new Captivate has been difficult, especially when it comes to using my own templates. I struggle with placing titles and buttons where I want them.
Additionally, I would appreciate guidance on creating custom templates. I’ve searched for videos on this topic, but most only showcase the default themes in Captivate. A tutorial specifically focused on custom templates would be extremely helpful.
Furthermore, the Table of Contents needs to be updated to allow for the addition of brand colors and fonts, as…

Revisit button functions on results slides
After the recent Captivate update, buttons on the results page are not behaving as expected. If users get to the page and choose to review their quiz and then get back to the results page, the continue button no longer performs its action. Another thing that I noticed that I hadn't before, if a user fails their quiz it might be helpful to only provide the review button after their final attempt. If users select the review button before they retake the quiz, the retake button disappears on revisit to the results page. On one hand this is good to…

Select multiple question slides and change common properties all at once
In the previous version of Adobe Captivate, we were able to select multiple question slides and change properties common to all the question slides. For example, if I wanted all my question slides to have two tries instead of one, we used to be able to select all the slides and make this change. Now I have to make these changes one by one.

Allow customized carousel page styles to be copied or applied across all instances.
This would also apply to other widgets, but if you need to customize the overall appearance of the carousel slide pages, i.e.( colors, text, cards, borders, etc...) it is EXTREMELY annoying and time consuming to be forced to make the same changes over and over for each instance!
Therefore, I HIGHLY suggest adding a checkbox somewhere in the properties panel that applies your custom styles to ALL instances within the same widget. This would save so much extra production time!

bug: variables are copied when copying interactions
When an interaction, including variables, is copied, a copy of all variables is automatically created. However, these additional variables are not needed and cannot be deleted.
For example, if you have 4 buttons on a page that each need to check if 5 variables have a value of 1, you can enter this manually, which is quite tedious. Alternatively, you can set it up once manually and then copy it. However, this results in having a total of 20 variables instead of 5, where only 5 are actually needed. The remaining 15 variables are redundant and cannot be deleted, causing…

Incorporate ability to add two more blocks side-by-side by adjusting the block width.
Ability to add two or more blocks side-by-side by allowing to adjust the width of the blocks. This will help when navigation buttons or similar small elements are to be placed by the side of a text or other content blocks.

Ability to adjust size of a button
Right now, the only way to adjust the width of a button is by adding spaces to the text. It would be much better to be able to define a width, possibly a similar way the Alignment and Spacing of a block is handled. Also the space between buttons should be adjustable.

Allow custom Buttons in UI Theme to flow to a text button changed to an arrow button
Currently, in a custom theme's UI components text "buttons" with corporate colors (each state) do not flow to icon buttons (forward / backward arrows) Only the default color scheme flows to the arrow buttons. When producing content for multiple languages, text buttons are not suitable. Arrow buttons should inherit the theme colors of text buttons from UI Components.

Recording from within a project should have all three options for recording.
Currently recording simulation from within a project gives you radio buttons, therefore you can not record the demo, training, and assessment at the same time. This is useful if you have build up some knowledge slides then you wanted to add a software simulation as a demo and training for example.
