The URP light cannot select light apearance

Hi all,

One of my projects can not select light appearance, as shown in the following picture, but other projects can select.
All of my projects use Unity 2021.3.4f1 and URP 12.1.7.
I cannot find any information about this problem.
Could anyone tell me why I cannot select it?
Thanks!

What do you mean with cannot select?
If you mean the icon is not visible, it’s probably disabled in the gizmos settings

Thanks for your reply.

The left inspector is provided by URP 12.1 document, and the right one is from my project.
You can find that the document version has the “Light Appearance” option under the emission header.
But my project doesn’t have this option.

@ntuaprilab have you found a solution? I have the very same problem and I cannot found a solution at all elsewhere

for newer URP version including 12x
Go to Project Setting > Player > Other Settings > Rendering and change Color Space from Gamma to Linear

the option can only be accessed if you’re in Linear color space.

for older version of unity and or built-in you need to do by script

first set lightsUseLinearIntensity = true
see Unity - Scripting API: Rendering.GraphicsSettings.lightsUseLinearIntensity

then only after that you can setLight.useColorTemperature
see Unity - Scripting API: Rendering.GraphicsSettings.lightsUseColorTemperature
