Suggestion : Pitch adjustment option for the three Indirect Lights

Hello,
I have lately remade my house's interior design and I wanted to setup a light up stage in it with two indirect lights with their beams focusing at the center of the stage.

However, after fiddling with the 3 types of indirect lights, I couldn't get the proper beams to shine in the middle as the angle/distance never properly fitted as I envisioned it.
This means that the beams meeting at the center of the stage ends up being near the floor instead of in the middle~ish of it.

My suggestion would be to add for specific items, such as the 3 indirect lights and maybe a couple more, a "pitch" option to adjust the angle to them. It could be a sub-menu outside of the build mode.

I know it is very niche and might require a bit of a rework on the furniture placement system in the game, but I think it would open a bit more possibilities for those items.

I'd like this as well. I made a theater room in my house with a light at the foot of the stage, but it was aimed way too high to properly illuminate the person on stage. Ended up having to put a wall light up on the stage paneling, which is ok, but the effect isn't the same. Had the same issue when illuminating the armor replica I made- had to put the armor on a desk so the light would hit it.

On the negative side, it'd be another interactive item to cause problems with things popping in and out of existence.

I feel like they need another sub-menu, like "item colors", which is "item adjustment". This is where you'd adjust any housing items that are actually not interactive (i.e. I don't want to randomly click on my partition and change the paper when I'm running around, and I don't just change the fish on a daily basis), and light angles (not on/off), wallpapers, fish, vases, etc. would go into it.

It would at least help lighten the load on the "interactive item limit" somewhat.
