A few Poser versions back there was a third party script that used to make the lights appear as a wireframe all the time, sadly I am not aware of any such script for the more modern version of Poser.

Here is a relatively simple script that does pretty much what you describe. To make it actually respond to every click, I had to build it as an add-on. The script works fine, but there seems to be a problem when Poser is closed. Then an error message appears briefly (so fast that I can't decipher it). The script is so simple that I can actually rule out a bug in it. But maybe someone knows more.

The script must be unpacked into the following folder: [PoserInstall]\Runtime\Python\addons
So that after unpacking there is a path named "ShowLightsInPreview". This contains the actual script "__init__.py", which must not be renamed.

After restarting Poser, the script is automatically active.

The installation of an addon from a zip is unfortunately not clearly described (poser13 manual), so it did not work for me.
