Hi Carlos and welcome to the E-learning Heroes community! There are several different ways to do this depending on how the navigation of your course is setup. If your course is linear you can use a simple graphic of your choosing that adjusts as the course progresses. 

Here is a discussion with a couple of examples and files you can experiment with: http://community.articulate.com/forums/p/27956/152366.aspx

If you have more of a branching or freely navigable type course you can use variables to track progress and adjust the progress indicator based on the value of the variable. You can see a tutorial on one option for a progress bar using a number variable here: http://learn.articulate.com/numeric-variables/

Hi Cynthia!

Are you saying that you are not able to see the video that the article references here? I see where you have reached out to Mike here as well so I'm not sure if he has some additional information to share.

If you are curious about the references to utilizing true/false variables, I'm not aware of a video, but wanted to share a couple of links with you here and here.
