Hi,

 Firstly I am using Revit Architecture 2010. I was wondering how to change the direction of a light. I am using one I got from the Autodesk website, and am struggling how to change the angle of illumination. What i am trying to achieve is, I will place it on the external wall and it will shoot light up the wall to wards the roof.

 Any help would be greatly appreciated! Or maybe someone has a family that does this and I can use it?

 Thanks, Josh.

You must insert the right light (wall, floor) then in the properties of that light check the "Tilt Angle, Spot field angle and Spot beam angle" like you can see in the image....
