Title: Remove corona light strength indicator
Post by: Tok_Tok on 2020-05-26, 10:21:40
Hi,

I've made a scene that is set to meters but my subject is pretty small (my bad when setting up the scene), so the corona lights have very large intensity indicators (the yellow lines that come from the lights) and I have multiple lights setup close to each other which makes it very confusing to select the right light. Is it possible to remove or makes smaller those intensity indicators?

Oke figured it out myself. If you change the units to centimeters the lights will change the indicators, but you have to restart Max to see the effect, which I didn't do at first. :)

There's a gizmo lines multiplier somwhere in Corona light settings. You can adjust length of those lines and even completely turn them off. Changing system units in the middle of the project is not recommended, as you may end up with much more serious issues because of that.

Aha! I completely overlooked that, thanks.

No issues surrounding the units, it's a very simple scene with only a product as subject and no sss or dielectric materials. Changing the gizmo is of course much easier and better.
