Hi @pintas

I tried it on my end.

Perhaps you can record a video showing the whole process? And please also confirm if this occurs to a specific file only or not.

Hi! Thanks for replying.
I’ve noticed this in all my files. Although that means 3 or 4 :slight_smile:

As you can see in the video, at some point, the light stops growing. So i have to create a lot of lights to achieve the effect i want. These files i’m testing are all made in Sketchup 2026 btw.

Hi @pintas

Try increasing the attenuation radius beyond 15,000; you can enter the number directly instead of adjusting the slider.

Thank you! For whatever reason, i thought 15000 was the maximum :slight_smile:
