Description

This tool toggles the 'custom light'.

Procedure

In addition or in replacement of the default ' sun light' a repositionable non directional light can be activated.

Once activated, a yellow 'star' will appear in the 3D scene where the custom light is currently positioned.

The user can displace this light source by holding the CTRL key while pressing the right mouse button (and moving the mouse).

This light can be enabled (or disabled) with this tool.
