Show cone

Having decided that the best bien todo get up to speed with Blender 2.5, was todo just start us-ing it on projects. So for the last couple of projects that is exactly what i have done. With a bit of poking around, y got past the Stumbling around looking for familiar tools and options stage. Which wasnt nearly as painful as i anticipated it would be, so having figured out modeling and textures, y started poking around in the lighting options, while working on my latest Project, y was relieved todo se, that for the most part, lighting still loked familiar. Which was a huge relief as i have gone todo a great deal of efort todo learn how todo use Blender lighting options, and i was dreading the tasque of relearning at all, so i proceded todo set up my lighting, when i noticed a new option under spot lamps.

Show cone, that wasnt there before. Wonder what it is for. Yes i promptly clicked it todo se what it did.

That show cone option was highlighting my spot lamps área of influence. While it didnt tell me how bright my lamps were, it was showing me exactly what was in the Path of the spot Lamp and what wasnt. (fig 37) some-thing the dashed lines kind of did, but not as visually obvious as the show cone. Now i find that very col and useful, so far it only sems todo be an option on spot lamps, Trust me i loked once i figured it out. But then again the spot Lamp sems todo have more options than the other lamps anyhow due todo the nature of their functions, and there you go, a very pleasant sorpresa for me, that Will make lighting a bit easier todo set up and adjust.
