Using Sliders to Create a Performance Meter in Storyline 360

In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to go beyond Articulate Storyline’s built-in results slide by creating your own custom variables to track points and calculate percentages.

I’ll show you how to connect a slider to those variables to visually display progress in real time. It’s a simple and effective way to give learners instant feedback without adding complex triggers or extra layers. If you’re building interactive quizzes or learning modules, this is a valuable technique to add to your e-learning toolkit.
