Labels
Leading: Used to give context to the progress that is being displayed. This leading label can be an icon, such as a search icon, or text copy like "Searching".
Trailing: Used to provide either a percentage of the progress that's represented with the visual or to provide additional context to what's happening
Inner: For circular indicators a label can be present inside the visual indicator (circle) which is used to give additional context to the percentage of progress.
Below: For circular progress indicators there is an area to provide additional context or a message related to the action that is being done. This message can change either on a carousel rotation of new messages or linked to the status of the progress. For example, after 50% completion display "You're half way there" or upon 100% "Complete".
