Light source definition shape does not match rendering

When you rendered at draft or low rendering quality settings, the light source definition shape did not appear to match the original shape.

For the light source definition shape to render fully, you need to use a quality setting of medium or higher.

The quality setting you use for rendering will affect the light source shape definition. In the Light family, under Light Source Definition, you can specify the shape the light will cast. If you select a render quality setting lower than Medium, this shape will not be fully rendered.

Draft/Low
Medium/High
