How to Use the Avada Progress Bar Element

A progress bar is a visual component that displays how much of a task or process has been completed. It typically appears as a horizontal bar that fills up (either gradually or in segments) to represent the percentage of progress made. This helps users quickly understand the status of an ongoing process, such as a file download, project milestone, skills, or loading sequence, among many other use cases.

The Avada Progress Bar Element is a straightforward way of visually representing various metrics on a website. This article details the features, customization options, and best practices for integrating the Avada Progress Bar Element into your website.

Overview

What Is the Avada Progress Bar Element?

The Avada Progress Bar Element dynamically displays progress information in a bar format, with the overall size of the Element adapting to the Column’s width to which it has been added. Commonly featured in Avada pre-built website layouts such as resumes, architecture portfolios, and hosting templates, this Element scales seamlessly with Column adjustments.

For instance, expanding a Column to full width automatically enlarges the progress bar to match. Unlike parent-child elements, the Avada Progress Bar operates independently, allowing multiple bars to coexist within the same Column.

To begin, insert the Progress Bar Element into your layout. Here’s a breakdown of its core settings and customization options:

Filled Area Percentage: This controls how much of the bar is filled. The percentage value can be displayed on the bar, depending on user preference. For example, setting it to 98% fills most of the bar, leaving a small unfilled section.
Progress Bar Text: Custom text (e.g., “Awesome Documentation”) can be added to label the bar. This text appears directly on or alongside the bar, depending on positioning settings.
Display Percentage Value: Toggle this option to show or hide the numerical percentage. When enabled, the percentage syncs with the filled area. Users can add a unit (like “%”) in the “Progress Bar Unit” field for clarity.
Margin Settings: Adjust margins to control spacing around the Element, ensuring it aligns harmoniously with the surrounding content.
Visibility & Custom CSS: Using the “Element Visibility” option, the Element can be hidden or shown on specific devices (desktop, tablet, mobile). Advanced users can apply custom CSS classes or IDs for further styling.

The Design tab offers extensive styling options to match your website’s aesthetic:

Text Position & Alignment: Choose between placing text “On Bar,” “Above Bar,” or “Below Bar.” Text alignment options (left, center, right) ensure consistency with your layout’s flow.
Typography Controls: Customize font family, size, weight, and color for the text. While our example used default settings, this feature provides complete typography flexibility.
Striped Filling & Animation: Enable “Striped Filling” for a textured look, and activate “Animated Stripes” to add subtle movement to the bar.
Height & Color Customization: Adjust the bar’s height (default: 37px) and set colors for filled and unfilled sections. The filled color animates as the bar loads, while the unfilled color remains static.
Border Radius: Create rounded edges by inputting a pixel value (e.g., 20px) for a softer design.

Pro Tips for Optimal Use

Dynamic Resizing: The bar automatically adjusts to column width, making it ideal for responsive designs.
Unit Flexibility: Use symbols (e.g., “%”) or text units, or omit them entirely for a minimalist look.
Visibility Management: Hide the Element on mobile if it clutters smaller screens.
Color Harmony: Match filled/unfilled colors to your brand palette for cohesive visuals.
