Question: Toggle Specular for lights

Hey guys, I'm wondering if it's possible to control which lights cast specular or not.

I can find if they cast different types of shadows but not the specular control. Currently it seems to me that only the Dominant lights are able to cast a specular and Global Illumination.

Thanks for your time!

    All lights besides a skylight should be able to cast specular highlights. However, it is down to the material, not the light, to control which surfaces actually have specular highlights.

    This is very weird as I seem to be having trouble to have multiple lights casting a specular.

    Now that I know the issues not with a hidden setting I'm not aware of, I know where to look - thanks!.
