    I have an invigorated logo with text that moves into a spotlight and then glintwerks runs across the face of the text. The problem I’m having is that the right edge of the text is under the falloff of the spotlight so when the glint runs across that part of the text it is effected by the falloff and fades out.

    I can turn off “accepts lights” in the material options and then the glint is uniform across the text, but then the text won’t gradually be revealed by the spotlight when it moves into it. Is there a way to acheive both?

    Hi Coz,

    Try precomping the Invig layer and Glintwerks, then shining the spotlight on the precomp. You should get the best of both worlds.
