Hi Eugen, Yes, it would be simple to do with the Tool SDK.
In fact, we already have a spot light creation tool example that ships with Softimage (search for SpotLightCreateTool in the custom tools addon) so only the reflected ray part would need to be added. Anyone up for the challenge? ;-) -- Brent -----Original Message----- From: softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com [mailto:softimage-boun...@listproc.autodesk.com] On Behalf Of Eugen Sares Sent: 04 December 2012 09:16 To: softimage@listproc.autodesk.com Subject: Place Highlight Tool Hi, I'd have good use for a tool to place highlights/reflections. Select a light (or any other scene object), click/move cursor over any surface, and the light gets placed on the reflected ray of the camera -> surface point ray. 3ds max has such a tool since forever. For Softimage, I could only find an old script by Guy Rabiller. Did I miss something? Should be possible to implement this nicely with the Tools SDK, I guess. Anyone? Thanks! Eugen
