How do I import a material or texture from OctaneRender Live DB into the Houdini plugin? I can't seem to find documentation on this anywhere.

Hi,
There is an icon in the shelf to open the LiveDB window. The LiveDB folder options are in the plugin options panel.

Thanks,

Just a comment about the LiveDB, I'm constantly getting errors on them because they are imported with a blank space in some of the names. Like "MT 11000" instead of "MT_11000".
Easily fixed when you know it, but adding an underscore automatically - would fix error messages.

Agree with Fake Pilot here. I'm constantly forgetting to rename and remove the space before working with the material. Would be great to parse the name on import and swap spaces for underscores.
