Hi folks - don't know if this is the right sub-forum to ask - and maybe i have overlooked the answer in the manual - but to use emitter lights one has to have a emitter-mesh in the scene, if not how do one go about using the emitters and blackbodys?

Thanx in advance :-)

emitters have just be added in the early pre-23 we released yesterday. If you are using that, you need to set up a diffuse material and at the bottom there's a property for emission. Didn't know if you referred to that or to the 2.2b, which doesn't have emitters yet.
