Give them unique names matched to the light that creates them.

Brillant, thanks!

I made some additional additions
Changed the Rename to Area_Geometry
Remove the LE2Data connector
Connect Light's WldMatrix to Area_Geometry's Matrix, so it moves, rotates, and scales with the light
Set Light and Area_Geometry ORA's Object_Name(s)
Add Reset Scale button
lClick - Normalize Scale
RClick - Normalize Rotation

Set the Aperture: The size of the aperture determines how blurred the out-of-focus objects will be
A rule of thumb is to keep it between 0.100 and 0.500 (0 disables DOF)

Toolbars
Several toolbars LMB & RMB commands were updated to Load - Custom Commands scripts if they do not exist within trueSpace, and then run the command
These scripts have been removed in the backup CustomCommands.RsObj
This reduces the size of the default.ctx from 39.2 MB to about 28.1 MB
When you use one of these scripts, the default.ctx will increase in size, until you Reset to Default Context
The idea is to save space until the Custom Command script is used
You can also reload all of these scripts by using the Restore - Custom Scripts icon
Note: Update - YafaRay4tS/ImagePreview script

trueSpace's Pause Activity logs activity in the Console for every Iteration
Replacing the Pause Activity with Debounce Time span script does not log any entries
