Using Context Menus for Octane Render for LightWave
Last modified: 10 March 2025The Octane nodes have a set of custom context menus to make possible the creation and edition of complex node trees only with mouse clicks. To open this menu, right-click over the Octane nodes. The root node of the render target node editor also has a custom context menu to provide direct access to nodes and config tools.
Some menus are sensitive to the click position, to link the added node to the input parameter under the cursor.
These are some of the tools included in the context menus:
“Default setup” feature and all the render target nodes in the Render Target Root node
Get “Texture Image node” in the DayLight and Texture Environment nodes
Get “Projection node” in the TextureImage node
“Link to Surface” option in all the Octane Material nodes output pins
Material nodes in the Octane Material Mixer materials input pins
Texture, Texture Tools and Procedural nodes in the Octane Materials texture input pins
Displacement, Emission and Medium nodes in the Octane Materials input pins
Texture, Texture Tools and Procedural nodes in all the Octane tool nodes
