LW lights aren't updating

[Anonymous]

My lightworks lights keep going back to a certain setting. It used to work fine; I would change my sun settings, then I would rebuild in 2D as I could see the angle of the window lights etc change. Once I knew they had changed, I would open my 3D window and re build just to be sure, and the rendering would be fine.
Now, in 2D the lights rebuild but the rendering doesnt change. When I go back to 2D, the window lights, sun object and sky object have all gone back to the old setting. And this keeps on happening. No matter what I do, (constantly rebuilding, and checking the settings are correct) the render always comes out the same - with the old settings.
I really have no clue why, when two days ago it worked fine.
Please I need help fast, I'm getting desperate.

I managed to get this working by saving as a new project. It seemed strange though. I thought the problem could've been a lack of memory or something so I restarted my machine as well. I also changed my settings to bring the 3D window to the front after adjusting 3D settings (which I find very frustrating) I don't actually know which helped make it work, but it's all okay now. I had the same problem when I first used lightworks too.

Each time you save a 3D view the rendering settings are saved with it. So, if you invoked a view, changed the settings, rendered, did not redefine the view, and invoked it again, your settings would have gone back to the previous version.

So, always remember to save the 3D view when redefining rendering settings.

Light settings are not saved with the view though, just the rendering settings and ArchiCAD sun.
