My requirement was to build a progress bar (showing the timeline of a "step-by-step" screen recording); furthermore, I wanted all the triggers to live on a master layout slide: so I could simply insert the layout with no further trigger tweaking.
I'm posting what I came up with for anyone to butcher for their own requirement. The only thing you need to change is the variable SLIDETOT - this holds the total number of slides you want to track and is used in the progress calculation.
Thanks Kim for sharing it! I know progress bars are often a hot topic and having the ability to customize one is something the community will really appreciate.
Thank you for sharing! This is great. One issue I have though is we do allow previous and next navigation in our course and it doesn't seem to retain the progress meter state for the slide displayed. I have set the slide properties to resume saved state but it doesn't seem to fix that issue. Any ideas? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
The published file is great so that we can see the behavior, but if you want someone to dive in and help you out with the settings, the .story file that you work on within Storyline would be best :)
I notice that your progress bar increments even when the back button is clicked. Is there a way of decreasing the page count when the back button is clicked?

Hi Shawn,
You may want to share your .story file demonstrating what you've built so far, so that someone can assist you with your design of your progress meter.
Here is a link to the published course.
