Quote - You can parent the light to the camera.
- Set up the scene with the camera and lights as required.
- Select a light and in its properties set it to be a spotlight. This will now allow you to use the "Parent" button. Parent it to the required camera.
- Set the light back to the original type. It will still be parented to the camera.
- Repeat for all lights.
I have my default lights parented to the main camera. In this way as I'm working on a figure I can look all round it without worrying about loosing detail in the shadows. I have other presets for the head and hands.
The Poser Tool Box has a tool to remove all the lights in a scene.
Thanks. I'm planing on doing a scene with a character holding a parasol to block out the sun, and it would be a lot easier if I could make sure that the sun was shining in the direction of the parasol.
Practical Poser 6 implies that there is a built-in python script to remove the lights, and that was making me very confused when I couldn't find it. I will try the toolbox.
