Create Geometry

Build a best-fit plane from imported manual-track markers.

3D Viewport sidebar, Dope Track tab, directly below Align Scene. Collapsed by default.

Creates a mesh plane from manual tracks that Enhance Auto Track solved in 3D and Output 3D imported as marker empties.

Before You Start

The marker empties only exist after this part of the graph has been run and imported:

Manual Tracks -> Enhance Auto Track -> Output 3D

Press Import to Scene on Output 3D. The solved markers appear as plain-axis empties inside the reconstruction's Hand Tracks collection.

Create Plane

  1. Stay in Object Mode.
  2. Select three or more imported hand-track marker empties from the same Auto Track.
  3. Open Create Geometry and press Create Plane.

The selected positions are fitted to one best-fit plane, arranged around their center, and used as the vertices of a single polygon face. Three markers make a triangle; four make a quad; larger selections make an n-gon.

The new object is named after the reconstruction with _TrackedPlane appended. It is placed in the reconstruction collection, parented to the reconstruction root, and made the active selection. Moving, orienting or scaling the Auto Track later carries the plane with it.

Best-Fit Behaviour

Real tracking points are rarely perfectly flat. The tool finds the plane that best fits the whole selection and projects every vertex onto it. Points already on one plane stay where they are; noisy points move only by their distance from the fitted plane.

For a useful face, select markers around the outside of the surface you want to build. Spread-out points give a more stable plane than a tight cluster.

Selection Rules

  • At least three unique markers are required.
  • Every marker must come from the same scene Auto Track.
  • Collinear markers cannot define a plane.
  • Markers at the same 3D position are rejected.
  • Object Solve markers belong to a different workflow and are not used here.

Invalid selections leave the scene unchanged and report what needs fixing.
