Control your Lighting setup (HDRI, Sun, Sky Texture) directly from your 3D Viewport.

Control your main light from the Viewport

Wether it's a built-in or World HDRI, a Sky Texture or a Sun Light, control the light rotation, height and intensity straight from the viewport.

Modal controls

Modes

• TAB: Cycle between modes
• H: HDRI Mode (built-in or World)
• W: Studio Light Mode (in Lighting → Studio → "World Space Lighting" must be enabled)
• D: Shadows Mode (in Lighting → Studio → "Shadow" must be enabled)
• S: Sun Mode

Actions

• R : Rotate HDRI
• Z : Move HDRI up or down
• X (if in Sun Mode): Pivot Sun on local X axis
• Z (if in Sun Mode): Orbit Sun on global Z axis around 3D Cursor
• SHIFT (Hold) (if enabled in Preferences): Precision Mode

Settings

• Enable/Disable Precision Mode with SHIFT
• Invert Rotation direction (does not work for Sun lights)
• Rotation Value Display settings
• Enable/Disable HDRI Rotation Sync: if the extension detects that you World is sharing the same Image Texture as your built-in HDRI (the one used when "Scene World" is disabled"), it assumes your world is "SYNCED" to the Built-in HDRI. It will make sure to sync the rotation between World and Built-in HDRI. Built-in to World HDRI Sync can be achieved using the Shading + Extension

Default Keymap

• CTRL+ALT+RMB: Can be changed via the add-on settings or in the main keymap menu.
