This tool will allow you to make an event when you set up NAV1 or NAV2 to a given frequency. An event can be :
Open and close a hangar door at a given time, or
Open and close a window, or
Any other type of dynamic you want to make using a polygon of 4 sides only. You can make a much more elaborate dynamic using the Frequency Structure Event.
To make this type of event you need to draw all sides of your macro using the regular tools and leave the dynamic side of the macro to this tool.
For more details you can load the NovaEx35 macro covering this tool.
This example is a hangar with interior walls and the doors will be opened when a frequency is selected.
The hangar is made using 2 type A polygons; one to make the base and the second to make the inverted V type roof.

The size panel shows the
dimension of the front wall of the hangar for this example.
There are two spinners to set the frequency at which you want the doors to be opened. One for the integers and the second for the decimals. You have the choice of using either Nav1 or Nav2. According to this example the doors will remain open all the time when you enter the frequency 110.30 in NAV1 in your aircraft Instrument panel radio stack. This picture shows how the hangar front will look when the Nav1 frequency is other than 110.30. |

Since the hangar
interior walls are visible then we need to draw both sides, front and
back.
You can see from the example the texture used when the hangar door opens. Since the texture in use is an extended bitmap you do not need to set any transparency option on it. |
