Cannot get GPU information HUD Tweet

[GruvDOne]

Whenever I watch a tutorial or demo of Octane for C4D, I always see a little HUD element in the lower left of the Live Viewer with all the pertinent stats for the GPU(s) in use. However, I cannot seem to evoke it in my install. I see the option under Help -> Show GPU info, but this effects no change.

What might I be missing?

Thanks

Hi,
have you try by right clicking in the live viewer and choosing the "Toggle info" option?
By clicking in the window without a picker selected, the info bars are displayed or hidden

I get no such option when right clicking in the LV... I just get the C4D contextual menu pertaining to palettes and windows, the same one you'd see if you were to click on the little grid in the upper left of any C4D window.

weird, you should have something like this also with the demo

Is Octane correctly running?

I appears to be working normally in every other respect. I have had no luck in invoking this in either the demo I have on my personal machine, or the full -license version I am running on this, my work machine.

Quite odd...

It also should be ON from settings as in picture.

Thanks guys, I did have those options checked... it appears they are that way by default.

Anyway, after trying to bring up the panel a few times, I was finally able to make it appear.

Thanks again for the assistance.

Here's what I did to get it to work...

Under "Help" select "Show GPU Info", as you'd expect. But GPUs don't show. Then right click the viewport and toggle info off. And then again right click the viewport and toggle info back on, now its there.

So, looks like viewport info settings are changed, but you just need to force that update.

(I'm using C4D, Live Viewer 2.25 R3)

Make LMB click on upper part of LV. It switches the modes.

I have the same problem. Nothing works. I've tried toggling info and show GPU info. I've checked setting > other and all check boxes are on.
I have Octane 3.05.3 full version and Nvidia quadro M4000. I even updated my GPU driver just in case.

Is it a known issue or just me?

Thanks,
Daniel

Edit: Just found out that undocking the Live viewer fixes the problem. Its using my Octane layout that caused the problem.
