Pro Tip: Showing Progress

I've shown this before, but it's been a while. Showing progress toward a goal is great fun and encouragement. Here's how you do it.

The colors can be anything you want.

 

 

75% complete

Important Note: Only put the percent complete. If you put both percentages, your bar will only show the completed part for some reason.

 

 

10% complete

And if you include a comma in the 2nd part, it makes things even worse--not even the words are correct in this example...

Correct code doesn't include any colons but does include parentheses before the number and after the 2nd color and a comma after the number and between the colors. For those with older eyes, here's the code for better viewing.

Note that the bar will always be centered, even if you use the ML code to try to change that...at least I couldn't change it. However, you can change the size of the words under the bar, though not the size of the bar, itself. You can also bold and/or italicize the words.
