You can create a new Target object by double-clicking on "Target" in the Object Toolbox. The Target dialog will open. Currently, Target objects contain no editable attributes.

By default, a new Target is located at the origin. The Target will be displayed in editor-mode views as a small bullseye:

You can move the Target in the normal manner by selecting it in the Hierarchy Panel, and using the Translate tool. You can also animate a Target object in the usual way by making it a child of a Path object.

Once a Target has been created, it will appear in any "Target" pulldowns in objects that support the use of Targets, such as Cameras and Lights (when used as spotlights). Once a Target has been selected, the objects that are using the Target will rotate as necessary to point at the Target over the course of the animation.
