Did it get switched back to not coming to the top when you access the Octane Overrides? You had it at one point whenever I would open any type of octane override, it would show above the viewport window. Now I find myself searching for it again when I click it because it stays hidden behind the viewport sometimes.

This behavior is controlled in the Preferences->Octane->Open OctaneRender Setup window on Selection/Creation.

Yeah I saw that, and it works upon initial selection. But after that it stops working. I swear it did before.

Try this. Open the render window, then click on an override, it opens correctly. Then click on the render window so the override is behind the window now. Then try to click on another override. It doesn't bring it to the front anymore...

Wasn't that how it worked before? This happens to me a lot actually..

Thanks

I will try to fix this in the next release. In the meantime, click the LAST button on the Viewport button bar, which opens the Setup window.
