I have an area light set as a rectangle and the only way to change the size is in the attributes. I can't seem to change it in the viewport? Any ideas.

Oh and by the way.

Vray is totally amazing. I have frame that is rendering in less than 20 secs and looks unreal ( well unreal for me anyway). This is going to change C4D forever.

PS I also noticed that using different aspect ratios doesn't work. You have to go 1:1. I had a scene that was 720x576 with an aspect ratio of 1.42 and it did weird stuff when I test rendered in the viewport

hi rsquires,
in VrayforC4d you cant resize in viewport the area light because the Vraylighttag block the orange handl.
if you want resize the area you can use the tag attribute or you can create light and resaize it, then you can assign the light tag.

hi Franz78

seems strange that the orange handles are there, if you can't use them. Anyway that's a work around I guess. Thanks
