Use of cmi.progress_measure for a progress bar

Hi there,

I am normally using variables and advanced/shared actions, but I would like to try and use the SCORM2004 cmi.progress_measure to show the progress to the learner.

Here is the idea.

- On every slide I will have a JS to set the cmi.progress_measure in the LMS.

- I will pass the cmi.progress_measure to a custom variable (progressMeasure) which I will then use for a progress bar.

- I am thinking of having a progress bar as a smart shape with many states. Lets say 10. Depending on the value of the variable - in this case - progressMeasure - the state of the progress bar would change. If the value is 0.2 the progress bar will be filled up to 20%. etc.

If there are 10 states of the progress bar if there would be a way to increment gradually by a 0.10 or similar value the variable and therefore having the progress bar increasing steadily. Another example can go to up to 100 checkpoints and increase by 0.01.

Hereunder is the OnEnter JS I am using. The first part works, but then it becomes a bit too heavy for me

The missing elements are in comments

The smart shape for the progress bar is called - ss_ProgressBar. It is set to appear for the Rest of the Project.

The state names of this shape are "One", "Two", etc.

SCORM2004_CallSetValue('cmi.progress_measure', 0.74);

var progressMeasure = SCORM2004_CallGetValue("cmi.progress_measure" );

function checkProgress();{

//what could be the if statement?

if ???

cp.changeState("ss_ProgressBar","One")

}else{

//what would be the else statement?

}

Thanks in advance
