Possible to rename light layers?

Is it possible to rename light layers, to give them meaningful names like normal layers? Right now, they’re just named “Light Layer 1”, “Light Layer 2”, etc, and I haven’t found a way to change those names.

Currently not possible. However, we are aware of the issue.

They added this feature on github recently, and it looks like it has made it into the branch that will be version 7.1.3. Just be aware that if you try this in its current state, its not the finished 7.1.3 yet - until the date on the changelog entry for 7.1.3 no longer has any XX’s in it, this version is not yet finished/released.

There is a small typo in the changelog entry for this feature:

  • Added hability to name LightLayers in HDRenderPipelineAsset
