Light Lister
Tools menu > Light Lister
Light Lister is a modeless dialog that lets you control a number of features for
each light. You can also make global settings that affect every light in your
scene.
To display information, this dialog requires at least one light object in your
scene. For a selected light, this dialog is a shortcut to the same functionality
available on the Modify panel > Parameters rollout. Global settings are
duplicated on the
Environment panel on page 6689.
NOTE The Light Lister cannot control more than 150 unique light objects at a
time (instances of a light don't count). If there are more than 150 unique lights
in your scene, the Lister displays controls for the first 150 it finds, and a warning
that you should select fewer lights. Select fewer lights and then use the Selected
Lights configuration.
