Ive been trying to make a cone of light that visible, coming from a
flashlight, i really dont know that much yet, ive only had about a month or
so experience with pov-ray. heres the source that im working with, im only
putting the part im having trouble with:


#declare Light_Cone =
cone { <0,1.928,0>, .182
       <0,25,0>, 2.5
     texture { pigment { White }
               finish { ambient 6 }
             }
     }

light_source {
                     <0,1.928,0>
                     color White
                     spotlight
                     point_at <0,25,-20>
                     radius .182
                     falloff 5.725
                     looks_like { object { Light_Cone } }
                   }

the problem is that it doesnt show up at all in rendering. i know thats not
a very much help, but i would appreciate any ideas any one has. thanx!
