Mapping Coordinates Update

[gueoct]

Why do Mapping coordinates changes need a full, often timeconsuming reload of the geometry?
Is it possible to have them updating in realtime like any other material change?

Mesh "changes" when UV changes cause UV and geometry vertices are related.
That's why it needs to be reloaded.

If you're changing the coordinates in a modifier or the base object then it will cause a geometry update, but if you're doing it in the shader, it should be... well... shader based, so it would indeed be odd if theres a full update.

If you do it with shader then UV's don't actually change. It changes texture transformation and it works in realtime with Octane.

..........cause UV and geometry vertices are related.

That´s true, indeed...
Thanks!
