  5. Modify any other properties as needed.

  • The glyph color of a source light matches the color of the light being cast (as specified on the New Source Light > Effects tab).

  • You cannot change the type of light after placement. To change a spot light to a point light, for example, you must delete the spot light, and then place a new point light.
