-----> Octane Float Texture

The Float Texture Outputs a float value between 0 and 1.  This can be useful when a simple value is needed as an input for a material's channel.

Figure 1 shows how the Float texture can be used to connect the Y Translation of a locator to the Diffuse input of an Octane material .
