I think you can do the same with elefront GH3D plugin ( http://www.food4rhino.com/project/elefront?etx )

"reference by type" (light) then "get rhino attributes" or "filter by" or the standard "guid" with a "dispatch"

Hmm interesting idea, I had not thought of those. Just had a quick test but could not get them to work, maybe as Light/s are not a option they have allowed. with the Ref Type or even Ref Name.

with type ref use text panel "light" and you'll get all lights

then using this plugin :

Seems I was on an older Elefront than you, Downloaded the new one and works great.

I am all ready using the Rhino-lights plug-in just need a way to select lights in the scene to edit.

This is my take on light Selection now it works.

Thanks Matt
