Test sphere function
A test sphere is a translucent sphere virtually embedded in the center of the
input picture to provide an intuitive way for you to check the position and
direction of the spotlight. When you change the position or direction of a light
source, the side of the sphere closest to the light source grows brighter. You can
easily check the position and direction of the light source by viewing the test
sphere.
For more information about test sphere, see "Relation between test spheres
and parallel rays" (page 152).
