Original position

 

  • When selected, the light moves along with the model when you rotate the model. The light always shines on the same area of the model because the position of the light relative to the model is maintained.

Lock to model selected

 

  • When cleared, the light stays in the same position in the model space. When you rotate the model, the light shines on different areas of the model because the position of the light remains fixed in space.
