  1. Bug: Captivate chrashes when selecting the feedback of a clickbox in simulation mode

    After recording a simulation, I wanted to format the feedback via status. Evertime I select the text in the feedeback and then click on "Text" in the properties (yellow marker, Bug1), Captivate chrashes (Bug2).

    This always happens - both in existing and new projects.

    I'm using version 12.0.0.2892 on Windows 10

  2. Issue: online connection must always be maintained to avoid crashes

    Without staying online all the time, Captivate won't work reasonable. Is there any chance to work offline? It seems there is a sync to APIs all the time. In times of crashing internet access this leads to crashes and unlimited loading bar.

  3. Bug: horizontal button position offset in export and preview

    It is a regular bug in all exports and previews. The button position inside a media block has an horizontal offset. It looks ok in the live view in Captivate Charm.

  4. Bug- New Captivate Image grid crashing application

    I created a Jeopardy board using image grids. There were 5 rows 6 columns. After putting images for 1 row of 6, every time I'd save or left/right click an image, the screen will go blank. Then I click file on the top. The top bar disappears. I tried reinstalling it, but the same thing occurred. Couldnt work in the project anymore since it would keep crashing so had to create a new one.

  7. Padding should only impact one object at a time

    If i click on an object and then grab the edge of the container to drag it as a way to reduce or increase padding, it changes the padding for both the object selected and the object either above or below. This is insane and leads to absurd amounts of wasted time. If i click on an object and i drag the edge modify the padding, it should only impact the selected object. Fix your poorly designed craptivate program.

  13. Publishing simulations as scalable HTML content in Captivate 13

    Please reintroduce support for publishing simulations as scalable HTML content in Captivate 13.
    The current limitations create accessibility concerns, negatively impact the learner experience, and introduce risks to training effectiveness. Simulation development represents approximately 99% of our Captivate use. Without scalable simulation content, it is difficult for us to fully adopt the new Captivate platform (which we are paying for). At the same time, Classic is becoming increasingly challenging to maintain and work with due to its age, installation issues, and compatibility limitations.

  14. Change default state of the alignment and spacing panel

    When clicking on visual properties the alignment and spacing panel is defaulted to closed. It should default to open or remember the state it was in when last used. At least until you ditch forced responsiveness which causes me to have to use this panel for every single object.

  16. Add Licensing section in Preferences

    It would be great if you had a Licensing section in preferences for the purpose of helping Captivate developers license and manage the use of their modules for other organizations.

    Within the LIcensing section there would be an Expiration date (month, day, and year), such that when the date would be reached (system date equal to or greater than the Expiration date), the module would jump to a developer specified slide in the module.. This would allow the developer to provide information for renewal of the license. This would make it easier to license modules to other organizations for their…

  17. Text Size Appears Incorrectly Upon Publishing in Mobile View

    I'm using Adobe Captivate 13. Example scenario: On a slide I have two paragraph blocks with subheader and body text. In subheader the text should be 18 px and body text 16. I have the same specs for block 2. I also have auto layout turned on for both. In preview it looks fine. But upon publishing, my smartphone shows the subheader text is smaller than the body text. It's very time consuming to edit, publish, and test. This only seems to be an issue with smartphone screen sizes because making changes and publishing in desktop view, the output is…

  19. Alignment panel does not have any alignment options.

    As the title says, the alignment and spacing panel does not actually show any alignment options. It only gives padding options.

  20. Drop shadow should conform to pixel edge, not container.

    When using a png asset, adding a drop shadow to that object should conform to the pixels in the PNG, not the square permitter/container.
