Hi,

I'm a bit stuck trying to create an outside security light, that is like a
spot light but has a square/rectangle area of illumination and has a
falloff (so that the edges are faded rather than sharp).

I've succeeded using a light with the projected_through{aPlane} facility,
but I get a hard edge and area_light doesnt help.

I'd be greatful for any ideas how I would go about constructing it.

Thanks
Zog
