Closed Captions Editing is Glitchy
When working with closed captions, my cursor disappears and it is difficult to see where I am editing, if I am editing at all. I have to select all and click to get the cursor to show or to reposition it. After selecting all and clicking, I can use arrow keys to move it, but it no longer shows on screen.

Enable more design features for the quiz slides
Currently if you insert a quiz slide you cannot add any additional design elements - they are all greyed out. It would be great if there was more flexibility with the design on these slides as it is a critical slide for e-learning

Export Project Content and Closed Captions for Localization of Simulations
I attempted to export Project Content and Closed Captions for a Training Simulation only to get a document file that contained only generic fields but non of my actual instruction or feedback caption content. If this is error I would like to know how to correct this. If this has not been developed for version 12 then I would like to report this as a bug. I have attached the exported word document.

Auto update
Implement an option to select auto update the All New Adobe Captivate. I didn't even know the software was not updating automatically and that I need to check for updates manually.

Web Object: Better utilization of available vertical space
I'm very grateful about the fact that with the 12.5 update the Web Object came back to Captivate. But there is an odd issue with the layout of web object blocks. They don't use the optimal vertical space within a slide layout. See the attached screenshot. Here the web object occupies only around 65% of the available vertical space between header and footer. Even if under ALIGNMENT AND SPACING Padding Top and Padding Bottom are set to 0px and Autofit Height is checked. Can that be optimized in future releases?

Fix inconsistent audio playback on the initial slides in Published courses
Often when I access a published course via the web, the audio on the first few slides does not play automatically. I need to advance and return to the previous slide to trigger the audio playback. This is not an ideal solution for learners.
I've tried adding title slides with no audio ahead of the first slide (expecting it would allow time to buffer and play the audio) to no avail. I've also tried positioning the audio to start at 1-2s after the slide has loaded with similar results. It might work to add a silent title slide with a button trigger to advance but that is not a desirable solution.

Slide navigation issue
If my parent slide is longer than a single slide, when I navigate from an overlay slide back to the parent slide, it jumps all the way to the top of the slide. This causes frustration as the learner now has to scroll all the way to where they left off just to continue the content.
On the other hand, when navigating from one slide to the next slide, the next slide opens at the bottom of the slide.For slide-to-slide navigation, it should always start at the top and for overlay-to-parent it should resume where the learner left off.

Create a java script or interaction that will rewind audio. When attaching audio to a slide, the learner cannot rewind the audio.
Currently, it is possible to use JavaScript to create a button to rewind video files within the captivate project, however, there is no similar functionality available for audio files attached to slides. This limitation impacts the learner's ability to revisit specific parts of the audio content.
I recommend adding an option under the interactions section or as part of the timeline settings that enables users to rewind audio attached to a slide. This feature could allow creators to configure rewind increments of 5, 10, and/or 15 seconds(or provide custom intervals). This functionality would make it easier to review the content without having to replay the entire slide.

Allow Highlight box on image slides
I have screen shot images in which I want to point out items using a highlight but there is no option if you are using a slide with an image. This seems only possible on a simulation slide. Same with hover box or or button. I can only add a button at the bottom using the widget, but I can't overlay an interaction on my screen shot.

TOC - Drag & Drop operation not working properly
The drag and drop features are not working correctly in the TOC. This is happening in 12.4 & 12.5. Create a larger project. Try dragging and dropping TOC items from the bottom of the TOC list to the top. The scroll does not work properly. If you scroll using the mouse wheel, the item you are trying to drop is lost from the drag operation. It seems you can only drop an item a few entries or else it drops in a random place or back in it's original position within the list.

Check for update
In Adobe Captivate, the only way to check the version and/or see if there is an update is to create a new project; or open a new project. It would be nice to be able to do the same in the home screen.

Three Outcomes for Quiz Results Slides
Presently there are two possible Review Area results messages, however there are three possible results of some quizzes.
1. You passed
2. You failed
3. You ran out of triesIt would be nice to have the third Review Area message available when a set number of tries have been set in the Interactions Section of the Results slide.
I have a client right now who wants this configuration but it requires a custom solution on my part.
