Triangle widget

The triangle widget is used to draw triangles on a slide.

Here's an example:

#config_version=5
slide_player:
  mc_ready:
    triangle_example:
      - type: triangle
        color: blue
        points: 0, 0, 100, 0, 100, 100
      - type: triangle
        points: 400, 400, 300, 200, 600, 500
        color: red
      - type: triangle
        points: 200, 500, 100, 400, 300, 400

The example above results in the following:

Note

Triangle widgets also have "common" widget settings for position, opacity, animations, color, style, etc. Those are not listed here, but are instead covered in common widget settings page.

Also remember that all widget settings can be controlled via widget styles, rather than you having to set every setting on every widget.

The following triangle widget settings may be animated: color:, points:, opacity:, rotation:, and scale:.

type: triangle

Tells MPF that this is a triangle widget.

points:

A list of six numbers which are the the x,y coordinates for each of the three corners. For example, points: 400, 300, 200, 300, 400, 200 would be a triangle with one corner at (400, 300), another corner at (200, 300), and the final corner at (400, 200).
