The Alembic library we're using doesn't allow us to refresh the Alembic file once it's been loaded. (and Octane doesn't show a refresh button for Alembic scene nodes). The Alembic developers recommend creating a new file with a different file name. You can then load this new file into the existing scene node.grimm wrote:I'm not sure if this is intentional or if I'm doing something wrong but it appears that the reload button for Alembic files does not reload the UV settings. I created a Alembic file with the Blender Plugin, which I used in a scene. While I was working on the scene in Octane I noticed that I had the UV texture coordinates rotated on one of the objects. I went back to the plugin, rotated the UVs and then exported a new Alembic file. When I hit reload in Octane for the file the UVs did not get updated. I ended up quitting Octane and reloading the ocs file to get the UVs corrected. I'm sure that if I had deleted the node and reloaded the file it would have worked as well, but it was easier to just quit and restart Octane. Is this right? Or am I doing something wrong? Thanks,

After you delete the scene graph node it's still in the undo buffer, so the Alembic file remains locked.
