Reflections from lights usually appear on materials with high "Specular" and "Metallic", and the **"Intensity"** parameter can be used to adjust the influence of the light on reflections.&#x20;

By default ''Visible in Reflection'' is turned on and is 1. When it is turned off, i.e. the parameter is set to 0, the light will be completely invisible in the reflection.

#### Know issue

Currently, it is not possible to switch off reflections using "Visible in Reflection" for lights reflected in  glass.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.d5render.com/user-guide/lights/how-to-make-a-light-invisible-in-the-reflection.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
