Viewable Result Meter Displaying Correct Answers on Every Question Slide

Hello. I have searched and experimented with trying to make an active results meter work. Ive seen several templates on creating a result meter that performs at the end of a quiz, like Rise 360 provides.

My objective is to have an active meter/gauge displaying as each question is answered throughout quiz. As an example for a 10 question quiz: the gauge starts empty on question 1. A correct answer fills the meter by 10%. A wrong answer does not increase the meter. The continues and is displayed on all question slides.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you.

    On the Master Layout for Questions, do this:

    • Add a slider or dial with the number of steps = to the number of questions.
      • Storyline will automatically create a number variable for this. I suggest you rename it to something meaningful (for example, "quizGauge").
    • Add labels at the steps to indicate progress.
    • Add a transparent shape over it, so that the user can't drag it.

    On each question slide, do this:

    • Add a trigger to the Submit button that adds 1 to the variable with the condition that the correct answer = Selected. 
      • That would look something like this: 

      • Be sure this trigger comes before the trigger that submit the question.

    On the Results slide, do this: 

    • Add a trigger to the Retry Quiz button that adjusts the gauge variable back to 0. 
      • Be sure this trigger comes before the trigger that jumps to the first question.

    Note: Unfortunately, the program remembers the gauge's position for each question during a quiz Review. So either don't allow a Review, or add a Review layer to the question slides that covers the gauge.
