Creation method#

There are two options for creating a Spot Light node.#

  • The first way to create a Spot Light node is using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need or words associated with this node.
    • spot, light
  • The second way is to select a Spot Light node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Light > Spot Light

Steps#

  • Create a Spot Light node.
  • Connect the light color to the first port.
  • Connect the light intensity to the second port.
  • Connect the position of the light to the third port.
  • Connect the target point of the light to the fourth port.
  • Connect the distance to the fifth port.
  • Connect the angle (in radians) to the sixth port.
  • Connect the penumbra (softness of edges) to the seventh port.
  • Connect the decay rate to the eighth port.
  • Connect the power of the light to the ninth port.
  • Connect the shadow toggle (castShadow) to the tenth port.

After creating the node, connect the appropriate values to the input ports. On the output port, you will receive the resulting spotlight object.
