- when using a matcap material you can edit it's material texture. just hover over it, screengrab, edit in photoshop and paint in a rimlight and import back into zbrush.
- when using lights from the light palette then turn on a lightbulb and shift- or alt-click into the sphere embedded in the palette to switch light position from front to back. this lighting model does not work with matcap materials though.
If you're not seeing the result clearly on the model then make sure you're using a basic material (not a matcap), and that the normal light's intensity isn't drowning it out.
Matcaps have complex lighting and color baked into it, and as a result generally look nicer.
Materials look a lot more basic, but you can change the lights, and material settings like spec, reflectivity, etc.
If you want to alter the lighting you will need to use a Material, not a MatCap.
But something dont want to work. I can change the light, to the background in the standart light.
But, at the lighcap, i cant change the light to the back, whatever i click.
The reason i want to do this is, that i want to have controll over my light, so that why i use the lighcap and turn off, the standart light
