Hello everyone,

I'm very new to Houdini so apologies in advance if this is a silly question.

I am using a Houdini 19 apprentice license and I can't seem to see materials in the lopnet perspective viewport . However, when I switch to a Karma render viewport, I then can see the materials .

Note:
I am following ROHAN DALVI's introduction series P5 on the SideFX website and made sure all the nodes are correct .

Any help is appreciated - thank you everyone!!

Update: not solved but found a workaround solution. Once I change the "principled shaders" inside matereial library into "USD preview surface" or "Mtrlx surface" the materials showed up fine
