5.7.3 Modifying zones
Now it is time to modify observation zones. Select point and press ZONE button. New dialog
with selected observation zone will open.
Using parameters in zone dialog is possible to describe all type of observation zones.
Direction defines orientation of observation zone. Available parameters are fixed, which is
mostly used for assigned areas. Parameter Angle12 defines direction. Symmetric is most
common selection for turn point. Next value will orientate observation zone in direction of
outgoing leg. This is usually used for start. Prev will orientate zone in direction of incoming
leg and is used for finish usually. Start parameter direction is orientating sector always
towards start.
If line checkbox is checked sector will become line type of observation zone. Radius1
parameter describes half of width of line length. Use bottom-right knob to increase radius by
0.1 of selected distance units and bottom-left knob to increase radius by 5.
If line is not checked, angle1 parameter will define basic shape of observation zone. Value of
180° means cylinder shape of zone and 45° is classical FAI sector. Rotate bottom-right knob
to increase angle for 0.5° or use bottom-left knob to choose values 22.5°, 45°, 90° or 180°.
Angle 2 and Radius 2 are used for more complex observation zone setup.
When changing parameters of observation zone, picture is automatically updated to show
the zone.
Check AAT checkbox, if you want to make selected zone an assigned area. AAT checkbox will
be automatically quickly be checked, when radius 1 is greater than 10km.
