slide(name)_created

MPF-MC Event

A slide called (name) has just been created.

This means that this slide now exists, but it's not necessarily the active (showing) slide, depending on the priorities of the other slides and/or what else is going on.

This is useful for things like the widget_player where you want to target a widget for a specific slide, but you can only do so if that slide exists.

Slide names do not take into account what display or slide frame they're playing on, so be sure to create machine-wide unique names when you're naming your slides.

This event does not have any keyword arguments
