Materials created in material properties are not showing up in the node editor in blender 2.70. Is there something I need to turn on? I've looked in user preferences and I don't see anything obvious.

Here are some possible causes:
- Your in blender internal rather than cycles:
- Your working the compositing nodes:
Make sure that the selected option is the little ball, not the one that's selected in the image. - Your view is not in the right place. hit the . key on your number pad. if nothing happens, hit A then ..
- Make sure use nodes is checked

1$\begingroup$ I checked that before I asked the question and it was in the right position. I had to restart the program and made sure it was in cycles from the start and that fixed the problem. Thanks very much. $\endgroup$ – Rmathews951 Jul 27 '14 at 19:41

Or make sure the "Use Nodes" Checkbox is checked in the Node Editor.
