Frustrated in learning Spotlight!

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hello

I’m frustrated in trying to get Spotlight to work for me in Zbrush 4R6. I am practicing with the dog in the Tool pallet. After load the dog onto the canvas I hit T for edit. I have a texture loaded on the left default texture on/off pallet that I imported. I only have RGB selected on top menu. When I go to add to spotlight and hit paint on the spotlight tool all it does is paint over my imported texture map? I’m sure I am missing some kind of step? Can anyone help? Thanks!
