FR: Node preview output to IPR- ala Arnold and Cycles please

[Studio21]

Hi,

one feature i really dig in the Arnold\Cycles workflow is the ability to publish a node output to the IPR for detailed inspection. the octane shader thumbnail preview is better then nothing, but cant really compare for detailed tweaking purpeses. Ahmet, i await ur magic

Thx,
Guy

Why don't you use solo mode, etc?

hi ahmet,

my intention is not solo an entire material but to havea quick way to see how a node or a node chain is mapped to my object (think image textures or noise maps for example)

noise map only

makes sense?

I'll not make serious changes before be sure about stability and first OSL version of SDK. After that i'll add several new features.
Best regards

After checking your picture i see that's not different than connecting a node to diffuse. Why don't do this and wish that as a seperate feature?
