Dome light changes

[dreamspace]

I set the Dome light where I'd like to see the sun coming into a scene during an interactive render. But when I switch to a final rendering, the light changes. Attaching an example. You can see the light on the rug in the interactive render screen shot that's missing on a final render. These are low resolution for illustration purposes. Wondering why this is happening. I do have the sunlight on too but it doesn't seem to matter. Thanks in advance.

But still can see the sunlight on the lower right floor

Yes but it’s not staying where I want it. Ie: Across the rug as seen in the interactive render screen shot.

What i mean is, the sunlight on the rug look like a triangle, it look like fake light, do you check your scene, is there any fake light in scene?

[dreamspace]

Yes. I know it’s not realistic. It’s not done. I just wanted to show one clear example to illustrate the issue. I don’t understand why the dome light entering the scene will not stay in the same place when I switch from interactive to non-interactive rendering.

Hard to say without a scene. Simplify the scene and attach (or send) it.

I figured out what the issue was. I had it set to Infinite Dome. Once I removed it, the sun stayed where I wanted it.
Thank you all for your responses.
