Display texture in 3D PLY models

Support
1

I use photogrammetry to make 3D models. I have tried to export the meshes in PLY format, either exporting texture (JPEG file) or exporting the mesh with vertex colors. In other platforms (Meshlab) the colors/texture of the mesh is well imported, but I cannot find a way to import the texture in 3DSlicer.

I have read a previous discussion (Displaying textured 3D models) but I couldn’t find the “Texture model” module of SlicerIGT extension.

Texture model is provided by SlicerIGT extension, both for latest Slicer Stable Release and Slicer Preview Release. Hit Ctrl+F, type texture, hit Enter, and you should see the module.
