Dynamic lighting preset on some Tokens

I think it would be nice If a player cast a wall of stone that when it is dropped it has the Dynamic lighting built it.  That would go for items as wall of fire, ice and others.

So it would be two tokens in one? One token on the dynamic lighting layer, and one token on the token or map layer?

nah just items with DL built in (example: looking at the token another spot would say () add DY) just like aura, tint etc.

If I’m remembering correctly some marketplace purchases do this already (eg map tiles), which means it is supported in some fashion, but I’m not clear on the details.

At the moment, outside of the API, there is not a way of tying the dynamic lighting lines to an image on another layer that I am aware of, but even that does not have the dynamic lighting built into the image, you have to associate the DL lines to the image after the fact.

You are correct, I can find no mention of what I was describing. So this suggestion would be a definite improvement. 

In my opinion there is only one reasonable fix and that is make a token able to block light based on alpha or a box defined by the user (like MapTool has). That is a feature that was suggested some months ago and did not get enough votes.
