The Visualization palette shows the lights that are in the current scene, and if a viewport is selected, the Visualization palette shows the lights that are in the viewport. This allows you to edit light, shadows, the intensity of the light, etc. in this viewport without affecting the lighting in other viewports.

  1. Hi Jonathan,
    Is it possible to change the Azimuth and the Elevation of a Directional Light for a single viewport (via selecting a viewport and editing the selected viewport through the visualization palette).
    These properties appear greyed out to me but I wonder if one really can’t change these values.
    Thanks in advance,
    Martín
