[Paraview] Add texture to obj files

[Cory Quammen]

Hi Martin,

Sure, it's possible. Try this:

- load you OBJ file. Click Apply.
- in the Properties panel, scroll down until you see the Texture option.
Click on the combo box to the right and pick "Load..." Load your JPG
texture.
- if you don't see the texture, change the color array to "Solid Color"

Note that your OBJ file will need to have texture coordinates that get read
into ParaView. I think someone added this capability relatively recently -
let us know if you can't apply the procedure I outlined above.

Hope that helps,
Cory
