Have there been any updates to viewing Octane texture maps (using UVs) in Houdini viewport? We have some textures with transforms applied to the maps in the material and we are trying to view them in the viewport but we cannot find any info on how to do so.

Hi. Can you elaborate on what you mean by viewing a texture map in the viewport? How would it be different to what you can see in the Octane IPR?

I'm talking about getting the UV texture map from the Octane material with any transform adjustments we are making there for the render, and having it display in the OpenGL viewport while we are animating. Right now we are having to pre-adjust our UVs to have our Texturemaps appear correctly using a Labs Quick Material node just for viewport playblasts.

OK, thank you. I've added this into our tracking system. It is not currently planned.

Cheers,
Toby.
