Hello, I am trying to save a state file that includes a sphere earth object in ParaView 5.6.1. I am able to create this object by running the Python script pvCreateEarthObj.py that I have attached. However, after running this I still have to manually load the earth.png image (Properties-Miscellaneous-Texture), and this step does not show up during a trace. I was hoping this could be avoided by saving a state file which will eventually include many other parameters as well.
I am able to save a pvsm state, but trying to load that state file gives this error:
ERROR: In /ParaView/VTK/Common/ExecutionModel/vtkExecutive.cxx, line 782

I also tried saving a .py state, but ParaView was unable to even save the file:

Do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
