When an object has been created, you can either add or remove a marker to/from that object.

**To add a marker:**

1. In either the **Tracking** panel or the **3D View**, select the object.
2. Hold CTRL, select the marker you want to add and then in the **Tracking** panel, click **Add Marker**.   
You can only add a single marker per operation.

 **To remove a marker:**

- Select the marker and in the **Tracking** panel, click **Remove Marker**.   
If the removal of the selected marker results in the object having fewer than four markers, you cannot remove the marker.

> ⚠️ **Note**  
> ⚠️ Adding or removing markers does not change the origin location or object orientation.

When you have the correct amount of markers on your object, you can configure the object properties and save these settings as a preset. For more information, see [Create an object preset](https://vicon-help.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/Tracker43/pages/344556837).
