  1. Hand tool

    The typical Adobe Hand tool is available in the new version of Captivate, however it is invisible. Using the space bar (similar to Photoshop and other Adobe tools) you can use it to navigate. It is much easier than the tiny scrollbars.
    But its icon button is never visible. Why? How do you expect new users to learn about this tool?

  2. Bug: Time ruler disappears on long slides

    On any long slide, typical for slide video, the project will always open with the timeline panel at maximum zoom. In that case the ticks on the time ruler simply disappear and are replaced by an emoticon. To get the ruler back, it is necessary to custom zoom.
    BTW I tried to upload a cpt project to illustrate what I explained but that is not possible.

  3. Allow streaming from Wistia in addition to YouTube and Vimeo.

    Allow streaming from other video hosting sites. We use Wistia and Articulate will allow an embed from any streaming service. I prefer captivate but we do a lot of video clips and embedding them into the trainings directly make the trainings huge.

  4. incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.

    We use the Synthesia.io tool to generate videos which we then incorporate into Captivate.
    Synthesia.io allows you to share videos directly from their site, without going through Youtube or Vimeo. However, Captivate cannot incorporate videos from sites other than Youtube or Vimeo.
    We would like to be able to incorporate videos published on https://share.synthesia.io/ into Captivate.

  5. Click-to-reveal-widget: Overlay should cover the entire slide

    If you click on a card using the click-to-reveal widget, the content is overlaid by a grey area on which the overlay with its components is then located. However, the grey area only covers the area of the widget block. It would be nice if this grey area covers all blocks or even the entire slide so that only the overlay is active.

  6. FOR THIS FEEDBACK WEBSITE - why do I need additional credentials?

    I have all admin rights in the Global Admin Console and Admin Console, I suggest you to link those accounts to this portal. Also do I need one account for each "uservoice" product?

    Adding an Other category and a category for Global Admin Console and Admin Console will also make sure to classify those requests better instead of getting lost under other products

  7. FOR GLOBAL ADMIN CONSOLE AND ADMIN CONSOLE - Manage group administrators

    Managing administrators in both Global Admin Console and Admin Console it is just a pain.
    We can sync groups and you have the false impression that you can use the everywhere, where for Admins they have to be added manually in a list in the UI.

    I understand from your support that there are different layers of admins for product, but having separate groups for all or them it's also an option.

    I'm not sure about other companies, but for the ones that just have a couple of people responsible for licenses and Adobe management they have all the admin…

  8. Collapse Playbar Icon in assets

    It would be useful to have the collapse icon (from the playbar) in the asset library along with a bigger variety of icons to choose from.

  10. Enable Feedback for Adobe Captivate Classic

    Under "Give Feedback" is apart from Adobe Captivate also Adobe Captivate Classic listed. With 0 (zero) feedbacks. There I've tried to enter a new idea but it's not working. Why is that? CpC is scheduled to be active until 2027. Time enough for improvements. Please also add "Provide Feedback..." to the Help menu of CpC.

  11. {BUG} Cannot change font to bold, italic, underline, or Strikethrough

    As the video shows -

    Cannot change the font to Bold, italic or anything else.

    This issue still persists after closing Captivate and coming back the next day to work on a file.

    Cause - I believe using the hotkey CTRL + B breaks it.

  12. bug - save does not always save

    This has happened to me multiple times: in the new captivate v12.2 (and prior versions of 12), when I click "save," it appears as though everything has saved correctly. When I later open the file, I have lost all of the work. This has happened on both mac and windows machines. I asked in the forum and other users are reporting the same problem. HOURS lost multiple times.

  13. Bug: when replacing video by shorter video, slide duration is not adapting

    Using Slide video as only (media) object on a slide. On adding a video, timeline of the slide will get same duration as the video. However when replacing the video by a shorter video, the slide timeline will not adapt, keeps its original lenght. I am on version 12.2.
    BTW trimming a video leads to same problem, but causes lot more issues, learned to use Rush for trimming now.

  14. Bug: Quiz questions skipped in Preview (captivate 12)

    I have a quiz with 7 questions, and when I preview the project, I go from the quiz intro slide straight to the quiz results slide. The quiz results shows that 0 questions where answered. My settings have that all questions must be answered.

    I have rebuilt my quiz question slides multiple times and no matter what I do clicking the Next button on the Intro slide skips over all of the questions. I've checked the button interaction and it's set to Go to next slide....Please fix!!

  15. Math symbols

    It would be nice to be able to write math characters and other special symbols inline with regular text with something similar to LaTeX typesetting or using Mathjax? Maybe I'm missing something, but it does not seem to be able to do so, even pasting text from Word.

  16. Have more standard timeline interface

    Make timeline behave like timeline in Premiere and every other professional application with a timeline. Current timeline is more inline with amature consumer applications like ClipChamp. Only easier to use for people unexperienced users. For professionals it is hard to understand, time consuming, mouse heavy, and extremely non-intuititve.

  20. The audios overlap

    The audios overlap. I have two audios on the same slide. The first one is short and is at the beginning, the second one starts from the 3rd second.
