Operations on Selected Tracks
Tracks selected directly in the viewer with the mouse or selected via track filtering can have the
following operations applied:
Delete Will remove the tracks from the set. When there are bad tracks, the simplest
and easiest option is to simply delete them.
Trim Previous Will cut the tracked frames from the current frame to the start of the track.
Sometimes it can be more useful to trim a track than deleting it. For example,
high quality long tracks that become inaccurate when the feature they are
tracking starts to become occluded or when the tracked feature moves too
close to the edge of the image.
Trim Nex t Will cut the tracked frames from the current frame to the end of the track.
Rename Will replace the current auto generated name with a new name.
Set Color Will allow for user assigned color of the tracking points.
Export Flag This controls whether the locators corresponding to the selected tracks
willbe exported in the point cloud. By default all locators flagged as
exportable.
Solve Weight By default, all the tracks are used and equally weighted when solving
for the camera’s motion path. The most common use of this option is to
set a track’s weight to zero so it does not influence the camera’s motion
path but is still has a reconstructed 3D locator. Setting a tracks’ weight to
values other than 1.0 or 0.0 should only be done by advanced users.
Onscreen display of track names and values are controlled by
thesefunctions:”
None Will clear/hide the selected tracks.
Toggle Will swap the selected tracks and unselect sets.
All Will select all tracks.
Show Names Will display the track name, by default these are a number.
Show Frame Range Will display the start and end frame of a track.
Show Solve Error Will display the amount of solve error each selected track has.
