Legacy fcsv file format is only for landmark points. You can use the new json-based file format for other markup node types.

Hello ! How can I convert the markupfiducial which I imported from the txt file to the open markups curve?
The code which I convert txt file to the markupfiducial is "markupNode.AddFiducial(\*out[:3]) ". Thank you in advance!
