I'm building a model and I want a time slider to pop-up automatically for a layer.  Is there anyway to call the time slider from model builder? 

I found this article: http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//00s300000023000000.....does anyone know if this works in 10.2?

The only possibility is if you can access the layer object using Python. This may work by using a function in the Calculate Value code block to access the mxd object as shown in the examples - or you may have to write a Python script tool and call it from your model.

It looks like some things are slightly different at 10.1/10.2, but the functionality sure looks similar. Here's the corresponding 10.2 help article:
