These controls affect the look of onscreen controls in the viewer.
Darken Image
Darkens the image while in Track mode in order to better see the controls and tracks in the
viewer. The Shift+D keyboard shortcut toggles this.
Show Track Markers
Toggles the display of the dots marking the location of trackers at the current time.
Show Trails
Toggles the display of the trails following the location of trackers.
Trail Length
Allows changing the length of tracker trails. If the pattern is moving very slowly, increasing the
length can sometimes make the trails easier to follow in the viewer. If the pattern is moving very
fast, the tracks can look like spaghetti in the viewer. Decreasing the length can help.
Inlier/Outlier Colors
When tracking, the tracker analyzes the frame and detects which of the multitudinous tracks
belong to the dominant motion and which ones represent anomalous, unexplainable motion. By
default, tracks belonging to the dominant motion are colored green (and are called inliers) and
those that do not belong are colored red (and are called outliers). Only the inlier tracks are used
when computing the final resulting track.
Common Controls
Settings Tab
The Settings tab in the Inspector is also duplicated in other Tracking nodes. These common
controls are described in detail at the end of this chapter in “The Common Controls” section.
