Light Shape question

#1

Hello,

Something came up while I was lighting a scene. I’m not sure how it happened, what it effects, or how to fix it (if it is a problem). When I go to create say a new Lambert, next to “Material Sample” under the materials attributes, is says “Light Shape” with what looks like a small light in it.

I don’t think this is a big problem but I’m wondering what causes this and what it effects.

PS. I am working in Maya 2011 if that makes a difference.
