Indeed...
To be more precise, "texture{}" concern surface of the object, "interior{}"
concerns the volume of this object.
They may be put together in a material for easier transformations but you
can NOT put an interior in a texture.
Don't get confused :
- neither by the "material_map{}" keyword which is a way to map textures
controled by an image_map (it is a keyword remaining from ages when
"interior" didn't exist)
- nor by "interior_texture{}" which concerns the interior surface of the
object (I'd have called this feature "inside_texture" if it was my choice).
