No Preview in the texture panel

Hellom Guys, I have a question / problem with Blender 2.71. I’m looking a new tutorial from Andrew Price (Clouds tutorial for Blender cycles). He can see a preview from the choosen texture in the Displacement modifier. But in my Blender panel there is no preview Window. You can see the difference in the two pictures.



Why i don´t can see the preview window ? I hope anyone can help me. I work with Blender 2.71 x64 and in GPU mode with the card Geforce GTX 770. With the CPU-mode there is no difference, i can’t see the preview window.

Thanks for your answers and with greetings,

Mikel007

One is set to use the Blender Render engine and the other set to the Cycles Render engine ?

Most likely because Andrew uses the latest version of Blender. Get test build form: http://download.blender.org/release/Blender2.72/ and try again :wink:

No, there are both in cycles mode. But thanks for your answer.

I haven’t see that he uses the newest Blender-version. That’s it. Thanks for your answer and a nice weekend for all, Mikel007

Just a note but he only uses the blender internal engine in that vid,not cycles.In other words,@Richard_Marklew is correct.

But i can see the cycles Render - adjustment in the Blender menu from Andrew in the video. And the clouds will render in cycles.

No problem. I’m glad I could help :smiley:

I’m guessing it’s this tutorial?

Put it in HD and tell me when he switches to the cycles render engine,i only see him using the blender internal engine.

Disregard that last comment.
If it’s this one http://www.blenderguru.com/tutorials/how-to-make-clouds-with-cycles/#.VCf-kxZ5f8c then @gumen is correct,apologies.
