under the word "scene" there is a little + button. Click that and a search window will pop up. type MPF and all the MPF scene type will show on the list. Select the one you want.

Do let us know if you figure it out. Pretty sure I'm still stuck at the same place. Here's my thread for comparison: https://groups.google.com/g/mpf-users/c/PowxCyIbjQQ

Here is a thread with a few screenshots where I faced the same problem and was put on the right track

its easy , just the plus button and the list comes up but you have to expand all the items in the list so at first glance u will be like what where ,thats not here, it is just expand them one by one till u find it, it will b there ,

and when u find them in list you will be like how the hell did i waste so much time on that ,,, the tutorial needs either the exact correct menu item names and where to find them or some pics to show the button and which menu to find all those things in,,, i guess if u had ever used godot before this would be fundamentaly simple but to a newcomer its decieving and i couldnt find mpf slide for the llife of me

I made a carousel for a mode selection. What do you have written for yours that isn't working, maybe I can help.

  item_highlighted{item=="3"}:
    d.o.a.:
        action: replace
        bus: music
  correct way, and definitely not how the docs say, they read , item_highlighted{carousel='carousel, item='1', direction='forward'}

im not sur why we would even use forward or back as it doesnt usually matter in a carousel, either way things have tio stop or change
