Adding a light to your model

A symbol representing a spot light appears attached to the cursor. Drag the symbol to the point at which you want the light and click the cursor. Then drag the arrow in the direction in which you want to project the light.

You can add as many lights as you wish to your model.

Updating lights

Reposition your lights simply by dragging the source or direction arrow to a new position.

Deleting lights

To remove a light, simply delete the light symbol using the regular delete command.

Hiding and displaying lights

This option hides or displays the light symbol. It does not hide the lighting effect. You can hide the lighting effect using the Render display modes (\rendmode) command.
