Built-In Variable's Documentation

I tried to search far and wide, but alas I was unable upon my travels to retrieve a treasure called "Built-In variables' technical documentation" also known as a exact explanation of each variables exact range and function. 

Aye some of the variables are self-explanatory, yet things like Menu.Progress and MenuSection.Progress perplex my scholar-like mind. Anyone in this fellowship whom have progressed in this quest further than I have? 

Or in written form: 

%Menu.Progress%
%Menu.SectionNumber%
%Menu.SectionsViewed%
%Menu.SlideNumber%
%Menu.SlideReference%
%Menu.SlidesViewed%
%Menu.SlideTitle%
%Menu.TotalSections%
%Menu.TotalSlides%

%MenuSection.Progress%
%MenuSection.SlideNumber%
%MenuSection.SlidesViewed%
%MenuSection.TotalSlides%

%Player.AccessibleText%
%Player.DisplayCaptions%
%Player.ZoomToFit%

%Project.Progress%
%Project.SceneNumber%
%Project.ScenesViewed%
%Project.SlideNumber%
%Project.SlideReference%
%Project.SlidesViewed%
%Project.SlideTitle%
%Project.TotalScenes%
%Project.TotalSlides%

%Scene.Progress%
%Scene.SlideNumber%
%Scene.SlidesViewed%
%Scene.TotalSlides%

      Hello Alex, 

      Thanks for reaching out!

      There isn't a way to control when the check marks in the menu appear, but we do have a feature request open for this. I've added your voice to the report so we can notify you as soon as this feature gets added to our product roadmap
