USU Design Tools Training

2.4.13: Progress Bar

A progress bar can display the student’s progress in the course. The Progress Bar tool adds a progess bar and provides options to change the height, label, background color, and text color of the bar.

Note: Currently the progress bar values are manually entered to accomodate a wide variety of uses.

When a progress bar is added to the page, the Progress Bar panel displays the additional options. The following table explains these options.

Progress Bar Item Description

Text Changes the color of the bar text.
Add Section Adds a section divider to the bar.
