Progress Bar Conundrum
September 5, 2008 12:00 AM
If it were me, here's what I would do. I would use %.Create the progress bar 100px long and make it have 100 units (Range: 100).Manually count the total number of pages for each role (Ex: Readers 20, Authors 35, Managers 45, ...)When the learner selects their role, calculate the step size = 100/their pages and clear a progress variable to or whatever the initial starting value should be - maybe 4 * the step size.On the Next button simply ADD the step size to your progress variable (not progress bar) because I am not sure what a progress bar will do with fractional amounts. You can try it.Then have an action to set the progress bar to the progress variable - put var(progress variable) in the Position field of the Set Progress action.On the Back button, subtract the step size and have a set action.
