better, and I usually recommend them over the default light. If you don't like the way they are set up, there are a plethera of controls to change the individual lights position, color, and intenisty.</font></div>

<div>Hi - apologies if this may be obvious to many.<br>
<br>
I'm not sure if within Paraview there is a way to change the light source in the scene ...<br>
<br>
I am using the 3.2.1. version on Windows.<br>
<br>
I did a quick scan on mail archives etc, and I found old (<2 years) references mentioning that this was in the works, but I'm not sure if it was eventually implemented and is made available from the Win binaries.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the clarification, and regards<br>
<br>
Andrea Giacomelli<br>
