Known Issues
- Prior to rendering a Sun Study, Flythru Animation or Bongo Animation, you must select the Perspective Viewport in Rhino that the animation uses
- If both the Material and Octane tabs are docked to the same panel, changing from the Material tab to the Octane tab after editing an Octane material pin value may lock up Rhino. This will be rectified in the next release of Rhino.
- Octane Material thunbnails will only render correctly if you have OctaneRender set as the current Rhino renderer. This will be rectified in a future release of Rhino.
Limitations
