pytha.set_element_face_light

Assigns a face light source to a single part or a table of parts. The part's faces emit light, similar to the Lights -> Face Light function in the PYTHA user interface.

If a part is already a face light, its existing settings are reused as the baseline and only the fields given in options are overwritten. For parts that are not yet a face light, sensible defaults are used as the baseline (intensity 1000, white color, shadows on, state on).

pytha.set_element_face_light(element [,options])

Parameter	Type	Description
element	element_handle or {...}	A single element handle or a table of element handles
options	{...}	Optional: a table that may contain the following options:
options.cast_shadow	boolean	Whether this light casts shadows
options.color_srgb	{r,g,b}	Light color as sRGB, each component in [0,1]
options.color_temperature	number	Color temperature in Kelvin. 0 means no color temperature is applied (the color_srgb value is used instead)
options.intensity	number	Light intensity, >= 0
