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.
