How to change the texture or colour of an object in Qt3D with QML?

I have a project, where i have one 3d object (.obj file) and i want to click on this object. For the first test i would be happy to change the texture or colour of the object. As far as i know it's called picking. Do you guys know how to manage this in qt3d? My whole project is written in qml, so it would be great if i could do the picking with qml (without c++), but if it's necessary im ready to try it that way, too.

My project is structured as followed:

I have an Entity as rootEntity and 3D-Entity, where my mesh is loaded. This structure is in an own qml file called View3d.qml. Now I set a Scene3D in my main.qml and load setup an instance of View3d.

I am using the Qt 5.5 beta with included qt3d on a windows 8.1 64Bit system, if its necessary.

The easiest way is that you add Texture to your .obj file with blender and then add it to your project .for doing this by using blender there is a lot of tutorials, see this How to Add Texture and this video.

another way is to use Texture and Texture2D

look at this code as an Example :

I have 2 qml class

in main.qml :

import QtQuick 2.12
import QtQuick.Window 2.12
import QtQuick.Scene3D 2.12

Window {
visible: true
width: 640
height: 480
title: qsTr("Hello World")

Scene3D
{
    id : scene3d
    anchors.fill: parent
    focus: true
    aspects: ["render", "logic", "input"]
    hoverEnabled: true
    cameraAspectRatioMode: Scene3D.AutomaticAspectRatio


    antialiasing: true

    RootEntity
    {
        id:root
    }

}
}

and in RootEntity.qml :

import QtQuick 2.12
import Qt3D.Core 2.12
import Qt3D.Render 2.12
import Qt3D.Input 2.12
import Qt3D.Extras 2.12

Entity {
id: sceneRoot

readonly property var textureModel: [texture1, texture2, texture3, texture4]

readonly property Texture texture1: TextureLoader {
    source: "qrc:/images/image.png"
}

readonly property Texture texture2: TextureLoader {
    source: "qrc:/images/wood.jpg"
}

readonly property Texture texture3: Texture2D {
    format: Texture.RGBA8_UNorm
    textureImages: TextureImage {
        source:"qrc:/images/image.png"
    }
}

readonly property Texture texture4: Texture2D {
    format: Texture.RGBA8_UNorm
    textureImages: TextureImage {
        source:"qrc:/images/wood.jpg"
    }
}

Camera {
    id: camera
    projectionType: CameraLens.PerspectiveProjection
    fieldOfView: 45
    aspectRatio: 16/9
    nearPlane : 0.1
    farPlane : 1000.0
    position: Qt.vector3d( 0.0, 20.0, -40.0 )
    upVector: Qt.vector3d( 0.0, 1.0, 0.0 )
    viewCenter: Qt.vector3d( 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 )
}

OrbitCameraController {
    camera: camera
}

components: [
    RenderSettings {
        activeFrameGraph: ForwardRenderer {
            clearColor: "#333339"
            camera: camera
        }
    },
    // Event Source will be set by the Qt3DQuickWindow
    InputSettings { }
]

CuboidMesh { id: mesh }

NodeInstantiator {
    id: instantiator
    model: sceneRoot.textureModel

    Entity {
        readonly property Transform transform: Transform {
            readonly property real angle: model.index / instantiator.count * Math.PI * 2
            translation: Qt.vector3d(Math.cos(angle) * 10, 0, Math.sin(angle) * 10)
            scale: 10
        }

        readonly property DiffuseMapMaterial material: DiffuseMapMaterial {
            diffuse: model.modelData
            ambient: "white"
        }
        components: [ mesh, material, transform ]
    }
}
}

the output is :

See the demos/qt3d/teaservice. This shows how to do picking (ie selection of an object using the mouse). Note you need the qt3d demo, not the QML teaservice.
