Effortlessly reposition any edge in local coordinates for planes, cards, surfaces, and other meshes with precision and ease.

In the perspective view, the mesh resizing rectangle allows you to shift-drag to maintain aspect ratio, control-shift to resize height, and control-drag to rotate. This is perfect for quickly aligning planes and surfaces with your applied imagery, ensuring precise shot resolution matching.

Effortlessly and precisely reposition any edge in local coordinates for planes, cards, surfaces, and other meshes.

A comprehensive Blender Exporter update delivers a smoother, more efficient workflow to visual effects artists.

• Compatibility with Blender 4.0
• Streamlines the export process
• Improves error handling

SynthEyes continues to support its users by staying current with Blender’s frequent updates. Integrate the latest features into your projects without any interruptions.

The library adds essential Blackmagic Design, RED, and ARRI camera updates, ensuring compatibility with the latest models, including URSA Cine12K LF and RED V-Raptor X.

SynthEyes’ ability to read raw camera formats, coupled with its high performance, makes it ideal for on-set tracking and quick previsualization turnaround.

• Silhouette Exporter Update: SynthEyes Silhouette Exporter now supports distortion prediction and tracker color export, enabling seamless 2D/3D tracking data transfer from SynthEyes to Silhouette, minimizing manual adjustments and boosting productivity.
• Support for Focal Length Metadata: Import camera focal length data directly from shot metadata, ideal for zoom scenes. This feature ensures approximate values based on sensor size.
• Enhanced Logic for Exporting Trackers: SynthEyes detects if more trackers can be included and prompts you to decide whether to export them or keep the current selection, automatically adjusting the max tracker value.

• Limit Number of Trackers: The "Maximum Trackers" control is now available in Flame, Fusion, Houdini, and Nuke, allowing users to limit the number of trackers being exported.
• New Timeshift Command in Synthia: Easily time-shift a camera by a specific number of frames without altering the images.
• Exporter Alignment: Updated export controls across Fusion and Nuke provide a consistent and intuitive user experience, streamlining workflow and improving usability.

SynthEyes features an extensive supervised tracking feature set with high-performance automatic tracking, 3D planar tracking, AprilTags, cleanup, and add-tracker tools.
