Crossword Genius

Rafter displays ray of light (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beam

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'rafter' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'ray of light' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

'displays' is the link.

(Other definitions for beam that I've seen before include "Smile; wooden supporter?" , "Smile radiantly" , "Ray; structural timber" , "Smile, light shaft" , "XWD SETTER" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
