The topics in this section describe rollouts whose controls are specific to photometric lights.
The Templates rollout lets you choose from among a variety of preset light types.
This General Parameters rollout is displayed for photometric lights. These controls turn a light on and off, and exclude or include objects in the scene. They also let you set the type of light distribution.
The Intensity/Color/Attenuation rollout lets you set the color and intensity of the light. You can also, optionally, set a limit for its attenuation.
The Shape/Area Shadows rollout lets you choose the light shape used to generate shadows.
The Distribution (Photometric File) rollout appears on the Modify panel when you create or select a photometric light with a photometric web distribution. Use these parameters to select a photometric web file and to adjust the orientation of the web.
The Distribution (Spotlight) rollout appears on the Modify panel when you create or select a photometric light with spotlight distribution. These parameters control hotspots and falloff for spotlights.
