How to disable the progress bar at the top of each slide

I have just published a course and upon review, there's a progress bar at the top of every slide except the very first title slide. I didn't put it there, (it's not a slider) and have no idea how to get rid of it, but I have to because it's blocking content. (Screenshot attached.)

To add insult to injury, the progress bar doesn't even work! It stays at 0% all the way through!  How can I get rid of this?

    That's the first time I am seeing this. Could it be something in a master slide?

      I thought that too, and checked all of the master slides. I couldn't find anything there.  It's the first time I've seen this as well.  Thank you so much for your reply!

        If you can share the file, I'd be happy to take a look.

  • I am seeing the same progress bar on my published content. There doesn't seem to be much online about how to disable it. Any suggestions from the community?

  • Hi Jason,

    Thanks so much for reaching out!

    I have a few questions to better understand your current setup:

    • Are you working with Master Slides within your course? It would be helpful to know more about how you created this file in order to assist. 
    • Do you see a percentage text box when viewing your project in Slide View?

    I'd like to share an article where my colleague Allison created a progress meter in Storyline 360. She walks through how she created this by inserting a progress percentage. Perhaps checking this will help you to know what is currently in place within your file.

    (She did this by opening the insert tab, choosing Slide Number, and clicking More in the drop-down menu.)  

    • I understand you are experiencing this when viewing your published course. Could you share where you have tested this behavior? What browser/LMS are you currently using?

    It would be helpful to look at your .story file to better understand your setup. Feel free to share your file here in this thread! 

    Looking forward to hearing from you! ✨
