# Sandbox.Animation.GraphBuilder.Create

```csharp
Graph Create(Node root, string name = null)
```

Creates an animation graph with `root` producing the final pose.

### Parameters

- `root` (`Node`): The pose node producing the graph's output.
- `name` (`string`), default `null`: Optional name. Graphs made this way are anonymous - they can never be found by name, so this is only used when identifying the graph in logs and profiles.

### Returns

`Graph`

Declared in [Sandbox.Animation.GraphBuilder](/api/Sandbox.Animation.GraphBuilder).
Assembly: `Sandbox.Engine`.
