    <p>I have ".obj" and ".mtl" files of a model and I'm loading it via <code>OBJMTLLoader</code>. ".mtl" specifies texture to apply to a model, and three.js loads model and renders it with applied texture just fine.</p> <p>But here's the thing.</p> <p>Once an object is loaded, I would like to apply another texture onto it. This is because first texture represents surface material of an object. And second texture is a drawing, that I'd like to position at a specific location on a model.</p> <p>My question is: <strong>how to apply a second texture onto already loaded (and texturized) object</strong>?</p> <p>I see that three.js creates an instance of <code>THREE.Object3D</code>, and that instance has "children" array with one instance of <code>THREE.Mesh</code>.</p> <p>When I try to apply a texture to that mesh (<code>mesh.material.map = texture</code>), I lose initial texture.</p> <p>I looked into this <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14932329/multiple-materials-with-jsonloader">question about applying multiple textures and JSONLoader</a> but didn't find an answer.</p> <p>I also tried using <code>new THREE.MeshFaceMaterial( materials )</code> (as suggested in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/12439857/130652">this answer</a>) but unsuccessfully.</p> <p><strong>UPDATE</strong>:</p> <p>I tried @WestLangley's suggestion to use multi-material object, but am still unable to render one material on top of another one.</p> <p>I made this simple demo, adapted from three.js OBJLoader — <a href="http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/822184/webgl_multiple_texture/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/822184/webgl_multiple_texture/index.html</a></p> <p>I'm using <code>THREE.SceneUtils.createMultiMaterialObject</code> as suggested, passing it cloned geometry of main mesh loaded from .obj. I'm also giving it 2 textures — one for entire surface, another one — for front surface of the model.</p> <p>But this doesn't work. I added 2 checkboxes that toggle "visible" property of corresponding materials. You can see that materials are present, but I can't see the first one from beneath second one.</p> <p>The crux of the loading/rendering is as follows:</p> <pre><code>var texture = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture('fabric.jpg'); var texture2 = THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture('table.jpg'); texture2.offset.set(-0.65, -2.5); texture2.repeat.set(4, 4); var loader = new THREE.OBJLoader(); loader.addEventListener( 'load', function ( event ) { var mainMesh = event.content.children[0].children[0]; multiMaterialObject = THREE.SceneUtils.createMultiMaterialObject( mainMesh.geometry.clone(), [ new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial({ map: texture2 }), new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial({ map: texture }) ]); multiMaterialObject.position.y = -80; scene.add(multiMaterialObject); }); loader.load( 'male02.obj' ); </code></pre> <p><strong>UPDATE #2</strong></p> <p>At this point, I think the best bet is to use <code>THREE.ShaderMaterial</code> to apply one texture onto another. I see some <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12627422/custom-texture-shader-in-three-js">examples of using one texture</a> but still unsure how to display both in overlaid state. I'm also not sure how to position texture at a specific location on a mesh.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
