Hi,
If I connect the attached bitmap file to a displacement node it works. Bu if I add an Octane Gradient or Color Correction Nodes in between texture and displacement nodes, it doesn't.
Could anybody tell me why, please?

Hi,
in short, you need to change the mode from Texture Displacement to Vertex Displacement.

Please have a look at this document here:

If you don't want to use vertex displacement you can also stick a Baking Texture node before the Displacement node to turn the data back into something Texture Displacement is happy with.
