angle of the bar, and its softness.
Preset: Lighting pattern suitable for nonlinear effects.
When Bar is selected, the following modes can be selected.
Normal: Emphasizes the bar highlight area.
Specular: Creates an effect like light striking a surface
with metallic reflections.
Mat: Creates an effect like light striking paper, cloth, or
another diffusively reflective surface.
