Tracking position and rotation (PB only)


    When you track both position and rotation, you attach a layer to a single track point, so that the attached layer not only follows the tracked region but also duplicates the rotation. This type of tracking is useful when the feature regions contain a lot of motion. With position and rotation, the track point is fixed in the center of the first feature region. To adjust the position of the attached layer, adjust its anchor point after applying the tracking.

To define tracking regions for both position and rotation:

  1. Size the first feature region (on the left by default) over the object you want to track. The second layer is attached to the center of this region. This region defines the base of the axis.
  2. Size the second feature region over the object that defines the angle of rotation.
  3. Size both search regions appropriately.
