Numbering Slides

Is there a way to have each slide numbered when you're utilizing the "Draw from question bank" Quiz portion of Storyline? The quiz is set up to draw 50 questions from the bank in random order. I can't find a way to show the progress of the quiz taker when it's active. There is a timer that shows the amount of time left out of allotted, but we're wanting to show that the participant is on slide x of 50. Is this possible?

You can create a variable (in my example, QuestNo) that tracks how many questions they have completed. As a trigger at the beginning of the slide, add one to the variable. Create a text field with the variable displayed. Place this on every quiz slide. It should display the number of slides completed so far.

How do I get to "Add 1.00 to QuestNo"? I don't see an "Add" option when I add a trigger. These are the options I see when I click Trigger and Action:
Sorry Kara; it's an inconsistency in wording between the trigger display in the trigger-wizard drop-down menu and the trigger panel. You want to select "Adjust variable", then change operator to + Add, and increase the value by 1.
Hi Kara,
It looks like David has you covered here, and if you need anything else just let us know.
David,
How do I get the "QuestNo" option for the Variable?
I guess I have to put "Question %QuestNo%/10" on my slide?
Yup - you got it.
Here's a tutorial on how to include variable references on a slide.
