Guys I have an issue, not sure what's going on:
In 'Render' menu, tab 'Octane Render Settings': when I change the values in 'Kernel Type' changes are reflected in the viewport straight away.
When I update values in 'Camera' and 'Imager', nothing happens in the viewport
How am I supposed to see the effects of what I am doing?
Also a suggestion: it would be useful to see the resolution of the image in the viewport.
Thanks!

Try pressing the refresh button on the bottom of the render viewport when you update the settings.It should work then.

That reloads the whole geometry, but I still see no change when i change for instance vignetting or exposure.

Probably you use Octane Camera Object and all settings is gotten from it.

This is a simple medicine cabinet from Evermotion. To provide light inside the cabinet I added 4 blackbody emmission tube lights to the corners of the inside. I have tried every setting for Direct, Path and PMC. I have changed materials from diffuse to glossy etc....but have had no success getting rid of the noise. I have also read the posts and changed to millimeters...No Help. What"s next?

I have set you an email with corrected scene.
You have to make light source geometry as simple as possible.
Now it looks like this

My problem was that my Blackbody emission lights were not simple. I used a many faced cylinder has like a Fluorescence light instead of a flat simple plane. My problems are solved.

Whilst I am happy the the current version has resolved the right click crash problems for some, unfortunately for me they are the same as reported in my post on page

bug:
when you remove blackbody emission from diffuse material, it doesn't show up the viewport, you have to reload geometry
