I m running a demo version of octane. After exporting a rhino drawing as an obj file it appears on the graph editor and starts rendering, however no image appears in the render viewport. is there something I need to change in the obj settings?

also make sure you're scale is correct, change it in the obj import preferences panel in octane, from the file menu.
it could be that your camera is inside an object if your scale is not correct and you're model is kilometers large.

also the "no image" could just be that you are "inside" your object, hence a black screen, I know it seems obvious, but sometimes...
