hey aoktar.

if been wondering for a while now. when the lifeviewer is docked for example to may viewport, it does not update changes in the octane camera tag in realtime anymore. it only works in realtime, when undocked and floating in its own window.

realtime means life feedback from sliding exposure, aperture or post processing sliders.

is there a solution to that?

do you not need an octane object tag on the plane to get real time updates?

no. in this case its not about the update of the plane. its about the realtime updates of the octane camera tag settings like aperture, exposure, focus and so on.

please uncheck synced updates on octane settings

im sorry aoktar, but i cant seem to find that checkbox....

Settings / Other

sorry, thats how it looks like on my screen. no "sync updates" to be found. is it a version issue?

maybe a problem of detection actual camera. If you closed opengl viewport. Plugin gets camera from viewport

to make it clear again. everything works fine. navigating in realtime: perfect. materials in realtime: perfect. textures in realtime: perfect. object animation in realtime: perfect. all works fine with docked and undocked lifeviewer.

only post-effects, exposure, aperture focus and alike octane camera tag settings have no realtime feedback when the lifeviewer is docked. if it is undocked there is no problem.

can i make myself clear?

thanks for your help!

update to 1.52.1 and uncheck sync on geo. updates than it works.
