# Light Copy

- Object
- Shift

Set here the translation vector applied to each new light copied from a light or list of lights. Directional lights have no position, so Shift does not affect them.

By default, each copied positional or spot light has the same position as the original light. This is expected when copying a light or a list of lights to a different layer. However, when each new light is in the same layer as the original light (for a list of lights, the Local option in the Layer menu), a small shift helps to separate the lightning effects produced by the new and original lights.

All other properties are the same for copied and original lights (only the identification numbers are different).
