Can't seem to get the AF to work. Have it enabled, open octane viewport, and click on a spot and focus stays the same. Is there something I'm missing in Poser or Octane Plugin?

If you have to click on a spot to adjust, then you are using Manual Focus. Auto Focus is a feature of the camera node. Once enabled, it is working until you use the focus picker, or reset the scene if the previously saved scene was set with Auto focus disabled (Focus picker enabled).
BUT : I have noticed (in 1.16, and reported it) that the Pathtracing kernel sometimes ignore the focus picker !
In that case, I have to switch to Directlighting to set the focus distance with the picker, and come back to Pathtracing after it is done.

Is this still a problem in 1.17? If yes, did you have the rendering paused at that time? Do you see any messages in the log window?ROUBAL wrote:If you have to click on a spot to adjust, then you are using Manual Focus. Auto Focus is a feature of the camera node.
