Group lights in multi light

Have the ability to group lights into one slider in Multi light. If you have a lot of lights in your scene it takes a long time to adjust the lights individually. if there was, as in real life (you hardly ever find 100 switches or sliders for a 100 lights except maybe in a stage type setup), one slider for a group of lights it will make it easier to adjust the lighting.
You could have a layer/sublayer type setup where you could change the whole group, subgroup or individual lights.

this would give a lot more control and speed user input

hi,

did you try join command in Rhino? it results in one slider for multiple emitters.

In Rhino, convert the lights objects in Mesh, and group or join (don't remember but it works for sure)
In 3dsMax just Attach them (Edit Poly or Edit Mesh objects)

Increase the intensity of the Emitter Mxm, that's all folks!
