Resetting the Reference and Tracker Boxes

Resizing the Reference and Tracker Boxes
Resize the reference box to make it surround the feature you chose to track more closely. By only including
the recognizable feature in the box with no other details that may change throughout the clip, you minimize
the possibility of the tracker losing the reference point.
TIP Sometimes a small reference point does not give good results. Try enlarging the box to include more of the
selected feature. Note that the larger the box, the slower the analysing speed.
Resize the tracker box so that it is large enough to accommodate the most frame-to-frame movement of the
reference point. For example, if the movement of the reference point is mostly horizontal, you can increase
the width and reduce the height of the tracker box. If there is a large amount of movement both horizontally
and vertically, increase both the width and the height of the tracker box. Note that the smaller the tracker
box, the faster the analysis.
To resize the reference and tracker boxes:
1 Do one of the following:
To resize the reference box and tracker box interactively on the frame, press a resize handle on the
box and drag.
