barrowfordred Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Solidworks 2008 : Is it possible to insert a lamp in a model and have directional light that always shines out of it (as it would from a real lamp) no matter where you move the lamp to? I can add light to a model but not as above. Thanks Quote
Quagga Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 Not sure if you can. on another note are you a communist living in Barrowford? or just a redhead? Quote
shift1313 Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 go to View>Lights and Cameras>Add Direction Light(or spot light). In the Light position section there will be a "lock to model" option. I only used SW08 for about a month but i believe this is still there as long as you have the photo rendering Add-in turned on. Quote
barrowfordred Posted April 20, 2011 Author Posted April 20, 2011 Tried this, it's locks the light to the assembly position not to a part in the model. Thanks anyway. go to View>Lights and Cameras>Add Direction Light(or spot light). In the Light position section there will be a "lock to model" option.

Red is a reference to my football affiliation ;-) on another note are you a communist living in Barrowford? or just a redhead? Thanks all anyway. Quote
