  Light objects and Symmetry

  Posted by Alex Reardon on March 3, 2012 at 3:58 pm

  Hello again.
  Working on another set design. My performers each have a couple of lights within their Null. Why won’t those lights work when the performer is duplicated through symmetry? Its not a complicated set, and stage left equals stage right.
  Its driving me bonkers…..

  Thanks again.

  Unfortunately the symmetry object doesn’t support lights — just geometry. You could use an instance instead, and if you really need symmetry, add some very simple xpresso to set that up.
