Yes, if the light's parented to a figure, it'll save to the library with it. Once you have it in the cr2, open it in notepad and search/replace the name to make it unique. The big advantage is that, when you open the figure, it will add the light to the scene without changing the existing lighting at all (assuming the name's unique). The only disadvantage I know of is that if you delete the figure, the light stays in the scene (in poser only), and has to be deleted separately. I have an entire photo studio where the lights are parented to the boom stands, etc, all with unique names, so the user can add a figure with it's own lighting, and keep the room lighting intact. I also use it for things like posable lamps with built-in lights. mac
