Turn off "visible to camera" for lights?

[guismo]

I am not sure where to post questions...
I am trying to do the same in blender that I would do in max, turning off "visible to camera" in a light. That way, I can see it in a refraction or reflection but not when the light is directly visible to the camera.

Is there a way to do this? Making it invisible makes the light invisible both for the camera and the refraction...

Thanks.

Thanks, but as I said, making it invisible makes the light invisible both for the camera and the refraction.

I would like it to be visible for the refraction, just not for the camera. So, if the light is behind a glass, it would appear in the refraction.

This is currently not possible. You could fake it with some light material, and then turn off visible to camera.

Turn on the affect reflections on the same panel.
