Hi Paul,
in the next future is it possible to change the way of selection material? I will try to explain..
When I select an object, its material is highlight by four yellow triangle but if i want to modify the properties of the shader I have to search the material into hundred od materials and then select it.
It would be nice if, selecting an object, octane went directly into the right material without clicking on it.

bye

Hi - this is how Rhino works - and I don't think there is any way a plugin can change this behavior, so I would suggest submitting this as a feature request for Rhino 6.

I have noticed though if you material pick from the Octane Viewport, the material will be be selected and the material list scrolled such that the material name is visible, so Octane material picking seems to be working better than selecting the mesh in Rhino :-)

Hi Paul,
I can submit a request to rhino support but I don't think they are so quick to update rhino as you do.

Thanx for the tip

bye
