Reset Lights to default

Hi there,

Thanks for contacting us. Did you try the suggestions provided by the experts above? Did it help?

Looking forward for an update. 🙂

Thanks,

You can save these as Animation Presets, ffx.

actually, I just lasso'd all the properties in the light and selected 'Reset' from the right click menu and that did the trick just fine.

guess I was just having a brain fart when posting the question earlier. 

Though it would be nice to just have a reset button on the lights so it's glaringly obvious. (Ha, glaringly)

Creating a new comp, a new solid, a new text layer, a new camera, a new light, a new adjustment layer all remember the last settings you used the last time you created new. 

I routinely just add lights then press "aa" to reveal all of the light properties. You can drag a selection around the ones that you want to adjust. I don't know of any way to reset a light to the default settings so UU on a new light wouldn't show you anything, but it would be a good feature request. New Ambient light is about the only light I edit when I create it. I find it faster and easier to edit lights in the timeline.
