Project.SlidesViewed not decreasing

I have a project with a loop goes to three different sections. At the end of each section it comes to the first slide which has three options to click on. I have "%Project.SlidesViewed% / %Project.TotalSlides%" (1/10) as my page numbering. When I click forward button It increase the slide number by one but if I go back, the project slide view number remains the same through out. Do you have any solution for this?

%Project.SlidesViewed% / %Project.TotalSlides%

    Project.SlidesViewed will never decrease. It counts how many of the slides have been visited/viewed. That's useful for tracking progress, but not for numbering.

    There are built-in SlideNumber and TotalSlides variables for page numbering a scene or the entire course.

    For example, for # of # within each scene, start with the Scene.SlideNumber variable.

    Then use the Scene.TotalSlides variable.

     

    If you're counting all the slides in the course, use the Project.SlideNumber and Project.TotalSlides variables.

    For further info, see Articulate's article about Built-In Variables.
