Edit Object Dialog

An object dialog serves to enter all parameters characterizing an object.

Example of an object dialog, here a point source (industrial source)

The required input values are entered into the respective input boxes using the keyboard or by selecting from e.g. a list box. The input boxes and options being available depend on both, on the object type and on the selected calculation standard or guideline. By pressing the TAB key the insertion mark jumps between input boxes.

Some input boxes may receive equations causing the equation being calculated and displayed immediately. In the example shown above, the result for the resulting sound power level is displayed in box „Result. PWL“ for the periods Day|Evening|Night.

Further information on the object- and guideline-specific dialogs for the source groups industry, road, and railway is provided in the following chapters of the CadnaA Reference Manual:
