Another thing that would be very helpful would be spot or pool lights that are quickly adjustable in LW Octane. I have several scenes with specific motivated lights that would be great to be able to throw a quick spot on with adjustable soft edge.

The lights that exist are nice though a touch limited for specific kinds of quick lighting.

Thanks again!

Yeh, this would be great. How are we supposed to do spots just now. Do you have to model gopeometry so that the light is constrained, or do you have to use an image map?

I think that the best way is to use a IES file of a spotlight ;)
