Trigger Question (briefing)

The question:

For example, An event happens, is there a trigger to focus hex?

Just like the briefing function (Where you can focus hex and add text)

For my trigger, i'm adding a couple units linked to a trigger that"s going to be place in a specific area, and I want to show (focus hex) that they've arrived after a check turn trigger (or check date), is there a way to do that just like the briefings? I assumed that Dialog Popup would be it.

I think you are searching for the Focus Camera effect or the Event Popup effect. From the Editor Manual:

"Focus Camera - Forces the view to whatever Target Hex you want seen at that point. The Instant option moves the camera immediately; if this is off, the camera moves toward the Target Hex at the Map Scroll Speed set in Options, Controls."

If you want to add a text information (explaining that the units have arrived to the battlefield, in your example)instead the Focus Camera effect, you can use the Event Popup effect, which allows you to write your text AND focus the camera in a place of the scen (or specifically a unit in the scen).
