How can I access Lightmapping settings for a light via script?

Question

I need to change the value of a given light in my scene from lightmapping 'auto' to 'baked' via a script, but it is not currently exposed in the API - how can I do this?

The lines of script you would need are :

Light go = o as Light;

SerializedObject serialObj = new SerializedObject(go); SerializedProperty lightmapProp = serialObj.FindProperty("m_Lightmapping");

lightmapProp.intValue = (int)lightmapping; serialObj.ApplyModifiedProperties();

Use this wizard script to test in the Unity editor

I am having trouble using this in javascript, the documentation examples are also C++ and if I use this code it complains about a missing ";"

Figured it out:

          var serialLightSource : SerializedObject = new SerializedObject(spotlightObject);

         var SerialProperty : SerializedProperty = serialLightSource.FindProperty("m_Lightmapping");
