      I've put up a new version of LightUp - version 1.2a - which fixes a number of bugs with larger models, adds some simpler material markup for emitters etc and a number of other features.

      Both Macintosh and Windows versions available.

            Thanks again Adam. I'm keeping current with your versions. A brilliant piece of coding. The text on the right side is small, but I can read it OK. How old are your eyes, Bruce?

              The text on your site (face page) is not readable it appears about .3 points....

              Hmm, if you have MS Explorer set to reduce font size of web pages (View->Text Size -> Smaller) then it does come out pretty small. I'll look into it. Thanks.

                Fixed. You may need to hit Refresh on Explorer to ensure its not using a cached copy.

                  This is done with V1.1 testing the space navigator. A lot of fun and it runs smoother than the flash file show. Tested on my 6 years old PC πŸ˜‰
                  Good work!!! πŸ‘

                    Thanks Adam, I DL the new version.

                    Is there anyway you can name the files with the version # ie:LightUpWin1.2 I don't usually like to overwrite files and I like to keep the old ones, just in case. Just a thought πŸ˜‰

                        Just an all round good idea. Consider it on the todo list! (EDIT: now done)

                            Awesome, thanks! I really hesitated to ask. I certainly don't want to tell you what to do and how to do it! I am really looking forward to playing around with the new version. Thanks for all your hard work!

                                I've started a little gallery of LightUp lighting on the website here.
                                Aside from the one model courtesy of SCF's very own Coen Naninck, I think it demonstrates that I may be a dab hand at the technology but I'm no artist! 😒 So if you've got any good LightUp pictures then lets be having them!

                                  I must be as smart as a box of rocks. πŸ˜•

                                  Edited to change it to: How do I get the light source component into an existing SKP file. I find it in the In Model library with a new model but not in an exisiting model.

                                    I think those may be better answered in the LightUp Forum. They have one just like this one. Probably someone's already asked the question and it's been answered.
                                    I don't mean to sound rude. If it came across as such, I apologize.

                                    Good luck

                                      @DaveR, should be there. I open an existing model and the light sources are in the component window. No problems at all.

                                        Thanks Burkhard.

                                        I can see the components in the window when I open a new session but if I open a model drawn before LightUp was installed, they're no where to be seen. Hmmm...

                                          Open the model in a new session?
                                          Btw it is possible that the Icons are not shown correctly, you only see a frame. But you'll find a popup there, so it will work.

                                          For MAC Users: You'll find it if you go to the list view in the component browser. There is an issue showing it correctly as an icon.

                                            That does work.

                                            I suppose one must start with light before anything right? πŸ˜„
