How does one clear the texture cache ?

When using the Quick Material, or UV Quick Shade there seems to be no other way to reload a replaced texture then to rename it in the file explorer, and then replace it.

The "Clear Texture Cache" button in the Texture shelf seems to be there just for show, nothing happens when clicked.

Using H 20.0.547

Not sure but have you tried from the main menu > Windows > Cache Manager > OpenGL Texture Cache > Clear ?

Thanks, but same difference.

Also "clear All" doesn't make Houdini replace the texture with the updated file in the Quickmaterial.

Yet another bug ??

Don't know then. Your guess is as good as mine's. I'd ask support at this point.

Just in case someone else runs into this issue, one needs to use " Render > Update Textures" or "Display Options > Material > Update" to force Houdini to update the textures.
