Beam Projector: Place up to three beam projectors anywhere in the simulation window. With Select depressed, you can move and rotate the projector. The light beam only turns on during Run mode.

In the beam projector's Properties Box, you can set the projector's intensity to one of three options: high (default), low, and off.

The projector shines a beam of white light, but you can set the color of the beam by placing a color filter over the projector. With two or more projectors, you can rotate the projectors so that beams of different colors overlap, forming light of yet different colors.

If you place the triangular prism first, a beam projector appears in a preset location. You cannot rotate or move this projector, nor can you place any additional projectors. If you place a beam projector first, you cannot place the prism. The size of the beam projector depends on whether the prism is present.
