I am totally new to Houdini but I have spent 2 days on something I thought would be easy. How do I assign UV texture to Illustrator art? I saved the Illustrator file as ai8 and was able to import it as geometry without any problem. When I assign a UV Texture and a UVQuickShade I get nothing. Any tips would be much appreciated. I want to map a procedural shape that I can bring into Unity with a UVs that hopefully update when parameters are changed.

Any chance you could post a HIP file and an AI file showing what's going on? It's a bit hard to tell from a screenshot, though if I had to make a wild guess, the File SOP is loading the illustrator geometry in the XY plane, in which case, the Projection Axis for the Orthographic Projection would need to be Z Axis, instead of Y Axis.
You'll also need to click the display flag (the rightmost area of a node) on whichever node you want to display. The screenshot you've posted has the display flag on the File SOP, so that's what'll be displayed, even though the UV Texture SOP is selected. (Sorry; you've probably figured that much out already, but I figured I'd mention it, just in case.)

Writing code for fun and profit since... 2005? Wow, I'm getting old.
