Focusing lighting devices from the Object Info palette

The Object Info palette provides direct control of a lighting device’s pan and tilt angles. The yoke of the lighting device rotates with the pan, and the body rotates with the tilt.

To quickly focus lighting devices from the Object Info palette:

Select one or more lighting devices, and select Draw beam.

A wireframe representation of the light beam is drawn using the default throw distance; see Drawing light beam representations.

Adjust the Pan, Tilt, and Throw Distance values to point the light at the desired location.
