Light On creates a lighting effect on a layer in your design, making it lighter so that the details and colors pop. It is especially useful if you import a photo and it looks a little dark and muted. You can use it on one layer or all of the layers in your design.
For example, in the image below, the original design (1) looks muted with both shirts looking a little dark. With Light On turned on (2), the two shirts are much brighter and more vibrant.
