Interesting question from a user how do we make a Fluorescent light tube? Many Architects use Fluorescent light tube fixtures in their presentations however I do not see a way to make them. Any ideas? I tried using the glow function however it does not seem to realistic in effect. Please let me know if you have an idea. Thanks in advance. `Shoop

I treid the brief discussion on page 266 of the manual. EitherI am doing something wrong or it is not working the way I want it to work. As you know, what I wanted was not how to make the tubes glow, but how to cast lighting on the stainless steel letters for a night time view, seeing the reflection of the tube lighting as a shadow on the background wall. I will try it again. Anyone got a step by step tut( for my lack of time) would be highly appreciated. TIA, Nick
