Still no material preview on scene

I still can not preview the maxwell material on my scene. I can see the material on the materials preview but after I applied the material to the objects on the scene they are not visibible. I checked the see material on the scene buttom but nothing happened. My major problem with this is that I can't preview the correct mapping coordinates. Is this still a bug or I am doing something wrong?
thanks

Im, also finding this a problem.....ive uv'd the object and with standard max materials i can see the texture but not with the maxwell material?
Are we able to do this? or does it need to be done in studio?

Yes, you should be able to see it as ludi said. Not on the top material, but go down into the actual bitmap material (where you have to specify the location of the bitmap) and turn on the bitmap preview button there. Then you can see the material.
Works for me on Max 8 SP3.

have you checked the "show map" button in the map slot? within the texture layer of the material? this should work...
