"Progress" Bar for a Form

Question

I'm looking to create a Progress Bar for a survey that my users are filling out via a QB form. Has anyone does this before that can offer any insight or best practices?

My current plan is to just take the question the user is on divided by the # of questions, and then show/hide a numerical % that changes for each subsequent question. Ideally, would love to have some sort of graphical representation to show this.

This is a Progress bar icon from the downloadable app from the exchange called Magic Buttons. I suggest that you download it to see what other useful formulas are there.// Draw basic progress bar. PctDone must evaluate from 0 to 10.var Number pctdone = Round(If([Action Count]=0,0,([Action Count] - [Incomplete Action Count]) / [Action Count]) * 10);var Text gry = "

";var Text grn = "
