Title: 3DS Max - how to change the color of swetched OFF lights
Post by: Bormax on 2019-04-11, 09:09:01

Hi
I would like to use black viewport background in 3DS Max, but in this case lights which are switched OFF become completely invisible, because they are black. I didn't fine any way to change it. Customize UI offers change of switched ON lights color only.

Do you have any ides how to do change the color of switched OFF light?
Thanks in advanced

Maybe you can create a helper object (dummy/point) and clone+align it to all lights?

One more idea: you can use the Corona Lister (from the toolbar) to list all lights. :)

Yes, sure. but I'm not good enough to remember the names of all lights. And honestly too lazy to name them all :)
