When you select one of your saved "lights" from the drop-down menu, the cursor flies out of the menu so, if you want to change to another file you have to click again.
It would be great to have the cursor staying there and you being able to rotate between your saved "lights".

I guess i have to set the focus again on the dropdown box and then you can scroll through the lights via the mouse wheel...

Every image should have custom lights set up just for it since no two are exactly alike, would'nt do much good. Color palettes and lights used on other images that have parameters posted with them can be saved seperately in the Light/color folder and loaded for any parameter anyway.

You are absolutely right.  However, there is always a however, I like to have some preset combo starters with settings I know following the idea of the 5 presets plus the 10 you can add.  This way you can save some time setting up repetitively a lot of light parameters. 

@Jesse  Thank you very much for implementing this suggestion. I am already using it! smiley
