Is the sky lab the only way to adjust the lights in Bryce? I need a night time atmosphere and It turns everything purple or 24 other colors! Any suggestions? Thanks :)

Almost everything in the sky lab has a slightly less omnipotent counterpart in the sky menu. What specifically are you trying to do?

I'm trying to create a night time scene (Halloween night) but it still looks as if the light is coming from the top left or up front. I want more control of the light and the color of the light, if I can. If I turn the sun icon to the moon icon I get a purple affect or a number of other colors based on the sky I choose. I want to use stars etc. but choose the light myself.

1.Sky Mode 2.Shadow Intensity 3.Fog height 4.Haze Intensity 5.Cloud Height 6.Cloud Color 7.SkyLab 8.Randomizer 9.Day/Night Toggle 10.Cloud Frequency 11.Color Picker 12.Sun/Moon Position The color bars at the bottom of each window alow you to use the color picker to set your sky colors. using this as reference you should be able to set your sky attributes to get rid of unwanted coloration. And use the sun/moon dial to rotate your celestial lighting in the proper direction to lay the light in the background, then just create small dim lights in the foreground to light your scene.
