sky opening

Last updated: March 01, 2021

Not a light in the traditional sense, but acts as a control when using Solar, Directional and Sky lights. A sky opening generates more efficient solutions for indoor scenes lit with sky or sun light through an opening such as a skylight, window, or door. Processing time is reduced because testing for shadows is carried out in the directions of the sky openings, as opposed to testing the entire sky.
