The Light Reports App is located in the Analysis Tab of the Fuzor App Menu. The Ctrl + N hotkey opens the Light Reports App. You can use this menu to generate light reports in each of your defined rooms.

The Add button adds a new light report of the current room to the list.

The Generate button saves a selected light report as an .html file.

The Photometric Web Visibility radio buttons toggle whether a mesh is displayed in the 3D view that articulates the light dispersion.

There are many light report settings that can change the results of tests. These settings must be set before a test is added for the settings to apply. These settings generate the lighting results based on a 2D grid over which measurements are taken. If sunlight is included in the measurement, it will change depending on the time of day.

The Height slider controls the height at which the light measurements are taken

The Spacing slider controls the spacing between measurements.

The Rotate text box applies a rotation around the y axis to the grid.

The Offset text boxes translates the grid by the amounts specified .

The Room Boundary Offset filters out grid points if they fall within the threshold of a given offset.

The Include Sunlight check box toggles whether Sunlight is measured.

The Sensor Direction drop down menu selects a direction to measure results from.

The Unit drop down menu specifies a unit to measure by. Possible units are Foot Candles and Lux.
