Hi ,

sorry I'm pretty noob with octane (even if I own a licence since first beta release )

I'was trying to explore the material options , and I noticed that if you desactivate the reflexion channel for example , it doesn't take it into account , it keeps displaying the reflexion parameters . You need to first rise down the reflexion value to 0 then (but not needed so ) desactivate the reflexion chanel ..

(i didn't check but maybe it does the same problem with other nodes ? )

here a quick screen vid to show the problem

(I'm under C4D R15.064 / win7 )

It's a problem when you double-click on a material to edit the parameters in the opened window (i don't know the name of the window in english, "material editor"?). If you use the edition of a material from the "attributes" panel, it works fine and you don't need to desactivate the chanel to refresh the LiveViewer. It's more a refreshing problem from floating windows in C4D with the LiveViewer, not really a bug.

Thanks Atom for your reply . well yes you're right it's like a refreshment problem.
Ahmet what do you think about this ?

it's not a plugin bug. Also not a sdk bug. Answered by octane team. It's a behaviour to keep backward compatibility in standalone. I have to fix this by some additional codes in plugin side.

ha ok . thanks for the reply
