Light Control

by Blender Control in Addons


I've activated Light Control but can't find it—where is it in Blender?
Once activated, you can access Light Controls "Add Light" Feature with "Shift + E" it will spawn a light at your cursor. If there is nothing at your cursor, no light is created. (Geometry Nodes setups that generate meshes are currently not raycastable)

Can I adjust the light source after placing it?
Absolutely, Light Control is all about adjusting Lights that were created with Light Control, native Blender or other sources. Just Press "E" or "Tab" (or press the "Edit" button in the top bar) to go into Light Edit Mode.

Can I use this add-on with Cycles and EEVEE?
Light Control is fully compatible with Blender's built-in Cycles and EEVEE rendering engines. However, keep in that direct/indirect lighting contribution, is not supported in EEVEE.

How do I install the Light Control add-on?
After purchasing, you'll receive a .zip file. In Blender, go to Edit > Preferences > Add-ons > Install, select the .zip file, and install it. Finally, make sure to check the activation box to enable the add-on. If you were using Light Control 1.0.8 or lower before, please make sure to uninstall the addon first, restart Blender and then install the new version.

Does this add-on support other types of lights or only area lights?
Light Control supports all Blender Lights (Area, Spot, Point, Sun) and their specific features.
