Progress Bar Issue

Hello there, 

Does anyone know how I can make the progress bar unaffected by the slide properties (when revisiting)? 

In the attached file, slides 3 and 5 have their "when revisiting" properties set to "Resume Saved State" so when you revisit these slides, the progress bar goes backwards. I don't want it to move backwards when we go back to previous slides. 

Note, the variable used is the built-in Menu.Progress variable. You should be able to see it from the slide master. 

  • Hi RubaAbudia​ the issue is with the "timeline start" when resuming, as the timeline doesn't start again. The way I have resolved this for you is to apply the progress bar update trigger on an arbitrary variable update. Simply toggling a True/False variable between the two values on each slide navigation is enough to force the update to occur on the progress bar.

    I have attached my solution.
