 按住左键沿目标轮廓绘制，松开后生成一个带原图 UV 的封闭网格。每次拖动都是一个独立完成的顶层 `Extract Balloon` Operator，工具本身继续保持激活，下一次拖动会创建另一个 Balloon；因此 `Ctrl+Z` 只撤销最近一次生成，`Ctrl+Shift+Z` 重做。每次生成后源 Image Empty 都保持选中和 Active。未绘制时没有持续 Modal 拦截事件，视图导航和其他原生快捷键由 Blender 正常处理；绘制中可用右键或 `Esc` 取消当前轨迹。选择左侧工具栏中的其他工具即可离开 Balloon Lasso。

-`Resolution (m)` 会根据 Scene Unit Scale 换算为网格使用的世界距离，因此不同单位设置下仍代表相同的物理采样间距。两种模式共用轮廓平滑、`.color` 图片副本和 `O Texture Layer` 材质。开启 `Reuse Material` 后，连续创建会按图片基名复用同一张 `.color` 与兼容的 Balloon 材质；关闭后每次新建。Balloon、Surface 与 Depth Plane 的材质名均取自图片数据名，而不是 Image Empty 对象名。该流程不运行 BEN2 或任何其他 AI，也不需要安装 Environment。当前只支持静态图片，不处理 Movie 或 Image Sequence。
