The first group of sliders represent the formZ lights. Physical Sky and Sky Dome are each broken out into two intensity sliders: one for the sun and the other for the sky. IBL channels for illumination, background, reflection and refraction are broken out separately. All other supported types are represented by a single intensity slider.Image Removed

formZ FormZ light groups are also supported. To adjust all lights in a group simultaneously:

  1. In the Lights palette, double-click on the light group and enable Intensity overrides. (it does not matter whether Replace or Scale By is selected; this setting is not used by the plugin.)

  2. Make sure all the lights in the group all use the same illumination specification, for example, all Lux or all Lumens. If the lights do not all have the same spec, the lights within the group will be treated individually.

Support for light group overrides may be enabled/disabled in Project Settings.
