Why can't baking texture be used for field texture?

I want to control the displacement map by using field texture, but it doesn't work. What's wrong?
field texture projection - xyz to uvw

Hi,
Octane Baking texture node works only in 2D space, you cannot bake texture nodes that involves 3D space or geometry, like Dirt, Curvature, Fall-off, Fields.

With Fields, have you tried to switch the Displacement node from Texture to Vertex mode?

ciao,
Beppe
