Were there lights inside the Shuttle cargo bay, either to provide illumination when the doors were closed or to better illuminate cargo when the doors were opened?

There were metal halide floodlights in the payload bay floor and one on the forward bulkhead pointing towards the bay.
There were generic flight rules about use of the lights and flight-specific rules if the lights were blocked by payloads in the bay.
