Hi, I always thought I have to call ofEnableLighting()/ofDisableLighting() and ofLight::enable()/ofLight::disable() together to make the lighting properly work like the following way. I think I read somewhere that this is the proper way to use lighting in OF.
ofEnableLighting();
light.enable();
ofDrawSphere(ofGetWidth()/2, ofGetHeight()/2, 100);
light.disable();
ofDisableLighting();
But I just found out that it seems like it’s works fine even without calling ofEnableLighting(); and ofDisableLighting();.
And even if I disable lighting using ofDisableLighting();, I could make it enabled again by calling light.enable();
So I wonder why we have ofEnableLighting()/ofDisableLighting() separately and when to use these instead of ofLight::enable()/ofLight::disable().
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I think the lighting is not completely disabled just by calling ofLight::disable(). When I draw other objects outside lighting area, they also got affected by the lighting. So I guess I have my answer.
