Can I reference the texture of an inventory object?

[SimplifyKidd]

I would like to apply the texture of an inventory object to a linked object. Basically, I want to be able to show how what is inside my scripted object looks. 

So, is there a way to reference the texture of an inventory object?

No.  The object in your inventory does not exist, at least not until you rez it in world.  Of course, you can always take a photo of your rezzed object and display it.

Sure, Rolig. I was not talking about showing the actual object. I wanted to show the texture of an object in the repository to indicate how the object looks. Such a face of a person, a checkered board etc.

There is no way to read the texture of an object that's in the prim's inventory.    You can, of course,  apply any texture you want to the containing prim, provided you have the correct permissions for the texture, but you'll need either the texture's UUID or a copy of the texture.   You can't read it directly from an object in the inventory.

Thanks, Innula.
