A couple of ways to use progress meters
Hi all.
I wanted to share something I've been playing around with.
Here's a proof of concept I've been working on for two ways to use progress meters: 1. Progress meter doubling as a menu

Hi, Just one question. Why you used the slide master to put the progress meter content?
Hi Naweed,
I put the progress meter content on the slide master so that I only had to set up the graphics, animations and triggers once. Because I wanted the progress meter to be a bit dynamic (e.g., animating the progress the first time you move forward to a slide, but visually keep track of how far someone had progressed if they went back to a previous slide), I needed quite a few triggers - 33.
If I was doing a static progress bar (that didn't animate, didn't remember progress if going backward etc.) then I would probably just do it on the slides, rather than the master.
Hope this makes sense!
