Design Suite Deluxe offers a good selection of lighting fixtures for the interior of your home. Interior light fixtures include ceiling lights, wall lights, track lighting, recessed lights, and lamps.
Each lighting fixture has a light source in its property definition, such as an incandescent light bulb. Lights are particularly important if you plan to create a 3DTrueView of your model, since the program uses light to calculate and create the rendered view.
With the exception of lamps, light fixtures are set to snap to either ceilings or walls depending on what kind of fixture they are.
To insert a light fixture:
Select Insert
> Interiors > Interior Lighting, or click the Interior Lighting
button on the Interiors toolbar.
In the catalog, select the light fixture you want to insert.
Position the light where you want it, then click to insert it.
Right-click and select Finish.
Tip: If you switch to Rendered or Rendered Outline display mode, you can see instant lighting effects as you position and insert light fixtures.
Note: If you want to insert exterior light fixtures, use the Exterior Lighting tool.
