Texture editor changes not being applied

I'm using Inventor 2020 on Windows 10, same version I've been using for months.

 

I'm trying to rotate the grain on a wood texture by 90 degrees.  I've done this often as recently as yesterday.  Today the changes are not being applied.

 

In this specific incident I'm doing the following.

  • The material's editors are set to Inventor Materials
  • I choose the material to apply - Walnut
  • I then click on the materials browser icon (global shaped icon to the left of the materials chooser
  • I double click the material I'm using - Wood (Walnut)
  • I choose the Appearance Tab
  • In the "wood" panel I double click on the walnut image opening the opening the Texture Editor
  • I change Rotation from 0 to 90 degrees
  • Back on the Material Editor popup window I click Apply

I see no change in either the Material Editor image or on my part

 

I've done this quite often in the past w/o and problems.

 

I've tried closing inventor and rebooting Windows.  I've also tried changing projects and creating a new part but that has the same problem.

 

Any thoughts?

Make Walnut appearance with 0 deg. and make another one with 90. I'm using for years works perfect.

I didn't have much problem in Inv2020 but  Inv2021 is for me probably the worst release.

Thanks for the suggestion. 

I already tried that and also tried other woods as well and all behave the same way.

Do know man i do have issue with appearance in 2021 but can't find solution. Do you have issue with density materials?Try reset Inventor or reinstall, maybe help.

Hi Gospon, Yeah, good idea but I tried that and it didn't solve it.  I did manage to get another wood that I'd never used to work but not any that I've used before.  I also deleted the material libraries and reinstalled them with no success  I also did a reset Inventor to factory defaults, no luck there either
