Dynamic Progress Bar Template
Hello. A few days ago, I thought it wasn't possible to include a dynamic progress bar that could be used with any number of slides. A few minutes after that, I built one. It's remarkably simple. I used object states and built-in variables on the slide master. I want to share it and encourage you to use it. Hint: Copy the entire slide master to get it into your project.

Enjoy!
Nice work! Would be great if the state did not revert to the default (blank) when going to previous screens. Any way to keep the object's state if 'Menu.Progress' value is less than the new one? Maybe a temporary variable that keeps track of the current progress and changes the state accordingly when navigating the content?
I have now modified it to keep the progress even if you navigate back to previous screens. The difference is that the triggers take place when the timeline starts on the Progress Bar element itself. This is better because copying and pasting the Progress Bar element into a different slide master will carry over the triggers, as well. :)
clean and simple; I like it.
This is awesome! Well done!
I want to use it in my current project. However, my project has approximately 100 slides of activities plus about 100 slides for random quizzes after completing the activities. I only want the progress bar to count the activity slides and not the quiz slides. Is there any way to set the total number of slides to include only the first 100 activity slides?
Ahh. I've found Insert slide number > Exclude slides on the ribbon and have unchecked all the quiz slides. I'm still having trouble getting it to work properly but seem to be on the right track.
