Any chance we could get an automatic size button inside the project node, similar to LW. Basically looking at the extents of the object/surface that material is applied to and automatically sizing the project properties appropriately?

I remember a problem to implement this feature while back, but I will look again if can be possible ;)

hmm...I'll check this out...but sounds like if UVMap node has this functionality maybe we could get it in the NEW projection node?

The next build will include the "Autosize" function in the Octane Projection node ;)
