I have created a 3D model and added texture to it in Blended.

How do I save the file in a way that it keeps the texture so I can use it in PowerPoint 365.

Seem to always lose the colour and end up with just the model shape.

Thanks,

    $\begingroup$ Wait, what? Powerpoint can import .blend files? That's new... $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 27, 2019 at 9:08
  • $\begingroup$ Did you follow this tutorial? It shows how to do it, but, alas, the monkey is not textured. Try to pack texture into your .blend file using UVs and then export the object. You may also set PP as your external app. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 27, 2019 at 10:46
  • $\begingroup$ Not .blend but LibreOffice accepts e.g. Collada. $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 27, 2019 at 11:11
  • $\begingroup$ Did you test this? Why would packing change the result of an export? $\endgroup$ Commented Apr 27, 2019 at 12:00

Export GLB file with it's textures and import it to PowerPoint.

how to set up the glb textures properly is shown here: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/addons/io_scene_gltf2.html

Edit: This is the setup for the textures enter image description here

and then import from file enter image description here

    $\begingroup$ Hi ! Thanks for your answer. Could you maybe add some screenshots of the steps that you did to make it work ? I think that would be very helpful. Thanks, $\endgroup$
