Lighting

The Maxwell for formZ plugin supports the native Point and Cone light types. The plugin also adds several unique Maxwell light types to the formZ environment: Softbox, Ambient Field, IES, Projector, Physical Sky, Sky Dome, and IBL. All these light types may be created and edited though the formZ Lights palette and Light Parameters dialog.

To create a new light, click on the ‘plus’ icon in the Lights palette. To change it to one of the Maxwell light types, double-click on the name of the light, then adjust the ‘type’ parameter in the resulting dialog. Click on the Maxwell item in the list on the right to edit the Maxwell-specific parameters of the light.
