Retrieve texture from wall

Many years ago i made a model of the house I was building and I applied a certain texture to the outside walls.

I have a new project now where I wanted to use the same texture. However, I cannot find this texture back in the library!

I can copy a wall from the old design and paste it in my new project and the wall will show up correctly.

Now I have a box that I would like apply the same texture to, but it does not show up in the library.

I have no idea where I got this particular texture...

Is there a way to extract the texture from the wall?

Thanks.

Re: Retrieve texture from wall

Export the wall. The export will have an .obj and .mtl file AND an image file with your texture smile

Import that image as a new texture so you can use it for other furniture. Make sure to give it a recognizable name during import (if necessary).
