Hi,

i have a button to switch between NAV1 + NAV2.
I would like to toggle the frequency on one display depending if NAV1 is set or NAV2.
NAV Button works, but how can i change the display to show only one value depending on state of nav button?

Thank you!

Check if there is a Variable that show this status....
In Case you send soimething like "Nav1 or "Nav2" with you button to the Sim then in the Sim "maybe" there is also a Variable that show if Nav1 or Nav2 is currently selected.

Then you can READ this Data and use it later as a Indicator.

E.g.
Config 1 is named "NavStatus" and read this information..... It have Value "1" if Nav1 is active or Value "2" if Nav2 is active.
Then you create 2 new Configs.
Config A show Nav 1 on your Display
It use a PRECONDITION and say.... Only work when Config "NavStatus" = 1
Config B show Nav 2 on your Display.
It use a PRECONDITION and say.... Only work when Config "NavStatus" = 2

***
If there is no data available we can use the "Variable Trick".
In that case your button not controll the Sim itself..... It just toggle a Mobiflight Variable to e.g. 1-2
Then you use this Variable as Indication for your PReconditions.

Good Luck !
