Summary0004122: turning off then on default light problems
DescriptionIf I turn off the default light, and then turn it back on, lighting isn't the same anymore. It is like double intensity, and the only way to get it back to normal is to set the intensity down to zero. And there's no way to lessen the intensity after that. It is almost as if another light was added to the scene, and the server manager lost control of the first.

This happens in ParaView 2 also.

The problem is that vtkRenderer will automatically add a light to the scene if none are defined. Since the light was added outside of the control of the server manager objects. There are several potential fixes to the problem.

1. If all lights are off, have a special case where the default light is on with 0 intensity.

2. If the last light is deselected, automatically turn on the other. I don't know what that would mean if a new light type was added.

3. Change the check boxes to radio buttons. Although perhas the least "hackish" solution, it precludes the ability to turn both on at the same time, which has been used in the past.
