Quote - in case users want area lites in poser, this is what an area lite currently looks like in poser. I converted the cloth plane (upper left) into a lite emitter with medium-quality poser GI settings.
GI is not the same as area lighting, having a surface that emits an ambient color is just GI. Area lights and area shadows are a function of raytracing that is independent of GI. This is why you "can't control shadows" with ambient color.
