Love the preview!
Can we have an in IPR snapshot gallery so we can compare renders etc. if that's not already in the roadmap?

The goal of the first build is to match the current OpenGL features and make it rock-solid, but of course, an image cooperation tool is in the roadmap for future releases.

Huan myfriend were are we regarding built-in renderview? when myfriend?

it that if you have IPR running and you create an octane light and set it to spot light. If you change the "Lamp radius" while the IPR is running, it instant crashes, and closes, Houdini to desktop, no errors or crash file created, just a fast hard shutdown of the application.

I've been trying to reproduce this problem here, but without luck so far. If you can reproduce it again in the upcoming new build (that should be available next week, including support for the latest Houdini production builds), please let me know to further investigate it.

Thanks,

Is there a possible timeline for an update with the latest 2021 build, particularly the restoration of the "emulate old bevhavior" on volumes?

I want to release the new build this week, before the holidays.

I like the new Qt5 window, blends well into Houdini. What I don't like is Resolution > Fill Window, it would be nice if it; especially if you have a fixed window size, getting a scroll bar and not seeing the tool\statistics.
