Many, many thanks Cory for Your answer. That did the trick.
Is there any chance to also set a guiName for the texture that is then shown in the list of textures when the PVSM is loaded?

Hi Roman,

It's not obvious, but you need to register the ImageTexture proxy with the proxy
manager:

pvs.servermanager.Register(texProxy)

Just add that in before you save the state, and you should be good.

HTH,
Cory

    After some hours of searching I found an answer that sadly was not linked to
    the question:
    http://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2012-March/024261.html

    The code below run as a macro in paraview shows a plane with a texture.
    However, saving the state in a *.pvsm either by code or within the GUI does
    not save the texture and its assignment.

    What is missing to save the texture and its assignment in a state file?


    ______________________________________________________

    import paraview.simple as pvs

    plane1 = pvs.Plane(guiName="xz-plane")
    dp = pvs.GetDisplayProperties(plane1)
    dp.Representation = 'Surface With Edges'

    texProxy = pvs.servermanager.CreateProxy("textures", "ImageTexture")
    texProxy.GetProperty("FileName").SetElement(0, "texture.png")
    texProxy.UpdateVTKObjects()

    dp.Texture= texProxy
    print dp.Texture
    pvs.Render()

    pvs.servermanager.SaveState("test.pvsm")

        Dear mailing list members,


        Is it possible to assign a 2D texture image to an object that has TCords
        in python?
        I found quite a few people trying and reporting that it does not work
        nor does
        the Trace Option under paraview tell what happens if a texture is
        assigned in
        the GUI:

        http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=12953

        I've tried:

              import paraview.simple as pvs


              reader = pvs.OpenDataFile("test.png)
              #reader.UpdatePipelineInformation()
              reader.UpdatePipeline()
              print reader.GetDataInformation().GetBounds() # needs 
UpdatePipeline

              obj = pvs.Plane()
              plane1Display = pvs.Show(obj)
              plane1Display.Texture = reader

              dp = pvs.GetDisplayProperties(obj)
              dp.Representation = 'Surface With Edges'

              dp.Texture = reader


        but neither plane1Display.Texture nor dp.Texture seem to allow to set 
the
        texture (see error below)

        Any help or hints are very much appreciated
