      Hi all....I hope someone can help me. I used Sketchup 8 Pro with the IDX Renditioner Pro plugin.

      Although I love the IDX tool, adjusting the light angle of a light component is extremely difficult. It involves changing the sub-component's blue axes along which the light shines, but not the object itself in which it is housed. But adjusting it in 3D space with only the green and red....a BIG challenge to me and very frustrating.

      Is there a plugin that can help me do that? Something like Kerkethea uses would be perfect, as it shows the cone of the light as well.

      Any suggestions or comments would be GREATLY appreciated...

      Thanks | Bernard
