Thanks Sebastien,

Your tip helped me find that I have to add filter to make texture possible, and then it covers whole sphere 2 times - once each hemisphere. I'll try harder and perhaps discover if I can add texture just on specific part (tile) of the sphere.

If you don't mind asking again, can you tell me if it's possible to overlay heighfield over sphere instead 2D image?
I didn't find how to make Paraview read TIFF as heighfield, but I can easily convert TIFF to NetCDF or HDF5 which Paraview loads in 3D
