Hi Kelly,
Thanks for your response.
We already moved the field on the motherslide behind the lightbox.

try
- create two new numeric custom variables (n, m)
- add trigger: on slide start -> "n" = "Scene.SlideNumber"
- add trigger: on slide start -> "m" = "Scene.TotalSlides"
- important: don't add this two trigger to the lightbox slide
- use for the text on screen: "%n%/%m%"
- you can do it global in the Slide Master
