Defined Strokes

Make Camera Active—Point at a single camera (not the target), draw the stroke, and that camera becomes active in the viewport in which you draw the stroke.

Change Light Color—You can stroke this command over one or more lights. The color selector appears, so you can change the color of the selected lights.
