Light Effect on a Model

Rendering

All lights added to a model illuminate the model simultaneously unless lights have been specifically turned off.

You can view an individual light's effect on the model by selecting the light symbol from the tree.

  1. Open the Rendering branch in the feature tree of the part or in the assembly tree.
  2. Click a light, and the model will be illuminated by only that light.

Turning Light Off

The light icon indicates whether the light is on or off (gray). You can turn a light off by editing its properties, or by using the functions of the light table.

  1. Click the Rendering symbol in the feature tree of a part, or in the assembly tree.
  2. Select the context-sensitive function Modify Lights.
  3. Turn off the light by clearing the checkbox under the light in the dialog box.
