    Hi Martin,

    Thanks for your answer; it has motivated me to learn how to use Geometry Nodes. I will check them out.

    I always assign an emission shader to a light source but never thought about replacing the area light.
    Your reply makes me want to experiment more with using mesh + emission shader for cases like this.  Maybe it can work as well.

    I will keep testing, and if I find a solution, I’ll let you know.

    By the way, I only use Cycles, so it is fine if this won’t work in EEVEE.

    Thanks again.
