Where can I find infos about "Reflection control"?

[REFLECTIONS]

Hi Gabbiano, there's a short description in this thread:

REFLECTIONS
CTRL + U: Update the 360 degree reflection texture. Reflections in Lumion rely on a single 360 degree panoramic reflection texture which is projected onto all reflective materials. In Lumion 2, add the new Lights -> Utilities -> Reflection control object to your scene to specify the position where the 360 degree panoramic reflection texture should be rendered at.

Thank you, Morten! Always helpful.
Can you please explain what does "specify the position where the 360 degree panoramic reflection texture should be rendered" mean?

Ah yes, unfortunately there is no way to achieve perfect planar reflections (as used by mirrors) in Lumion. Not yet anyway

Here's a post where I describe the current limitations of the reflections in Lumion:

I can't undestand why reflected image is bigger than objects in front of it!

What if you want to create a reflecting metal?

It is not yet possible to achieve perfect planar reflections for mirrors etc in Lumion. The single 360 degree cubemap reflection in Lumion is all we have, so you will not be able to create a perfect mirror (unless you actually create a copy of the scene, behind the mirror

Thank you again. Hope reflections will be the next Lumion target!

thank you kindly for your help.
