Is it possible to have multiple point or spot lights in one fixture family--like in the case of a chandelier or track lighting with multiple heads?

Seems like it could be done with nesting--do I need to resort to that?

Couldn't be done last time I tried it, in release 3.1 :cry:

Just gave this another whirl - first tried a nested spotlight family into a generic family - didn't work.

Then, tried a nested spotlight family into a lighting family - also didn't work.

Seems creating a group may hold some promise. I'll give that a go next.
