Area Lights casting shadows

[yogiparish]

Hello,

I am using area lights in an interior scene to "augment" the sunlight from certain windows. Unfortunately, the area lights will still cast shadows into the scene, even though their visibility is set "off" (see the below screenshots)

If I add a object tag I can dial down the general visibility to 0 but then the light has no more effect in the scene.

Could somebody help me along a little bit?

I'm using R19 and the latest plugin (3.07R2)

Thanks

This is where I placed the light

When I remove the visibility in the LightTag

Here are my other settings
