The Diffuse render element displays the diffuse color component of objects in the scene.

- Lighting
- When on, the diffuse render element displays the color of objects after lighting has been applied. Default=off.
When Lighting is turned off, the element displays the diffuse color of objects before the lighting gets applied. For textured objects, this will look like a 3D projection of the texture. However, objects with a single color will look “flat”.
