I am still not getting any preview of materials in the VIZ viweport using the latest plugin. There is no transparency or material shown, all goes grey. It is very difficult to thell which elements have the correct material and it takes too much time because all has to be done manually because of the lack of material translation. (or seed/preset scene with file linking, see other post)

Does this work somewhere else out there?

Did you use the "Show standard map in viewport" check on bitmap node level? Picture attached.

Ok, I have to be more precise: I can see the texture bitmap when I use your described method, but not the material as such. I mean, I cannot see glass or anything that has no bitmap attached.

Ah, I see. No, transparency is not supported yet, but it will be.
