material ball not rendering

Hi guys,

I'm facing a strange issue with 3.04.5 and 3.04.4.
If I'm creating a new project, and clicking on a newly created material, Octane Standalone won't start rendering the material ball as used too.
If I open an old project, everything works perfectly. What could cause this issue?

Thanks
Akos

Not just the material balls won't render but when you click on a single geometry it doesn't start to render it either.

OMG!
Sorry for being so stupid, I don't used to change there anything, so I don't realized that some of them were turned off.
Thanks!

Alternatively if you don't want to see the material ball all the time, you can right-click a material or mesh, and select "render".
