Light parents in funny scenes

I'm setting the parent of a light to a node in scene2. The light does not illuminate the scene.

Code:

import viz

viz.go()



SIM_SCENE = viz.Scene2



viz.scene(SIM_SCENE)

viz.MainView.getHeadLight().disable()



worldInAnotherScene = viz.addGroup(parent=viz.WORLD, scene=SIM_SCENE)

mylight = viz.add(viz.LIGHT, parent=worldInAnotherScene)

viz.add('female.cfg', parent=worldInAnotherScene )

Can you set the parent of a light to a node? Why does the light not respect the scene of the parent?

Try specifying the scene that you want the light to affect when adding it:

Code:

mylight = viz.addLight(parent=worldInAnotherScene, scene=SIM_SCENE)

This will be fixed in the future though.
