What is the best method / workflow for 3D tracking to a live action scene? I'm assuming that I need an external application, or is this something that can be done directly from Maya 2013?
View 1 RepliesI am having trouble locking onto a temporary tracking point in autocad 2011. I can't seem to find the start tracking icon and it doesn't recognize the 'TT' command. I have a tracking line, I just can't seem to do it in two dimensions.
View 2 Replies View RelatedNot sure what's going on but the value changes depending on point size it seems. So if I imput say 50 in the tracking field, one line of text shows 38 and another line shows 48... Is there a way to force all text to simpley stay the exact value I choose??
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to track adjustment changes applied to an image in CS6? Namely, I would like to know how numerically Temperature, Tint, Exposure, Contrast etc. are changing from one adjustment to another.
E.g.: I've changed saturation of an image. How do I know how many values of saturation have been changed? Where are such data stored (logs, caches etc.)?
Since upgrading to Photoshop CC I cannot change my tracking values. If I type in 100 it shows 57; if I type in 200 it shows 118.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just gotten Photoshop 7, and i was wondering if there was a tracking option, i mean on paint shop pro, you could put a tracking on the pen tool, which made it where if you did a line to jaggedy, it would straighten it for you, or if you wanted a curve, all you had to do was do a rough one, and it would 'curven' it out for you.

View 1 Replies View Relatedwhen drawing lines or moving something, what looks like a tracking point will pop up but then won't go away, it's not selectable, and regen won't get rid of it. a save and reopen is the only way it goes away.
it only does this in 2 of the user log in names, and it's worse in the other one. it puts the x everywhere you click. here's a screen capture of what's going on. the brown x over in the upper right is the trouble. it used to be on one of the lines, but on a regen moved to there. this was just random lines and moving the mouse around to acquire snap and tracking points.

When I edit paragraph text the Tracking appears to change. However, the actual Tracking setting in the Character pallet does not change. In other words, spacing between letters gets reduced but none of the actual Character settings change.
This issue happens when I click in a paragraph to edit the text, or when changing the text color via the Character panel. After I'm done editing the text, if I double click the type layer to select the entire block of text the spacing returns to normal.
When adjusting the tracking in cs6 the tracking value changes to a smaller value once applied. I rely heavily on this to work properly, are there any workarounds to this problem ?
(This became an issue after I 'upgraded' to the latest version, are they trying to get me over on CC by introducing more and more bugs to cs6?
Scenario:
1. I find stock images (let's say X and Y) on the internet. Save them in a folder.
2. I use the saved stock images in an ad or as a design element in my design piece. I save out this document as a file (let's say Z).
Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
1. Automatically read the metadata or xmp data (or even tag the file with custom data on load) for images X and Y.
2. When X and Y are used in my design and saved out in Z, I want to be able to open Z and read the tagged data and be able to identify the data from X and Y in Z.
In simple words what I am trying to do is, when I use multiple image sources in a design piece, I want to be able to open my final design file and track the source files I used, so I can go back to my archive and find them without wasting my time hunting through multiple folders and hard drives.
I have a 10 sec clip that I want to track. It's a girl driving on her bike a long a street. The camera is always parallel to her, so that the scene behind her keeps on changing. How can I track such a shot? I know, that if I want to track something going off screen, I have to jump to the last frame and adjust the tracker, but this clip is just too long, to just place the tracker at the very last frame (almost randomly).

is there 3D object snap tracking?
All my polar tracking options are turned to Zero.
strangly enough its does give me one tracking option (read line) wile drawing at 5°
and when i draw a square it seems like my plane is off a bit (prolly 5°, looks like a perspective)
Tried fiddling around with the DSETTINGS command but nothing goes.
so i s my plane off, UCS off, also i get sometimes 1 out of 10 times an innorect SNAP ( snap to a point and its off by a 0,x margin. i
Have Adobe changed the way tracking values are interpreted in Photoshop CC?
Just that if I select a line of text like normal and then set the tracking to eg. -50 when the change of tracking is made to the text this -50 value then turns into -11! which I don't understand!
It doesnt matter what i change it to the value then automatically changes to a weird number value, if I try tracking of -25, it changes to -5! What is going on here, is there a setting I need to check or change?
Can not change the font size or tracking in the Character Window. It always gets random numbers in the input field. System: MacbookPro Retina, OSX 10.8.4, Photoshop CC 14.0
View 1 Replies View RelatedThere ought to be a way to do this, but I don't see how: I record forums, and the presenter frequently wanders back and forth across the stage. I can use the motion tracker to track his wanderings (since the camera is set to a fairly wide angle). What I want to do with the motion tracking information is have the presenter's clip pan back and forth as he walks forth and back - with the net result that he stays in the center of the screen. (I'd use a zoomed portion of the image so that there would be enough to fill the frame.
Is there a way to do this? It would make forum recording so much easier.
I was wondering if there is a way to reset the time tracking in AutoCAD. For example, If I use an existing drawing as a starting point for a new drawing, even if I save with a new file name, AutoCAD tracks form the time the original document was created.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI really like the object snap tracking feature to snap between 2 points intersecting but I find it overly sensitive and hard to get it right the first time.
Is there a way to turn down the sensitivity? I use this feature frequently.
when I highlight some type... the Tracking/Kerning option is grayed out in the Character dialog box. It's not adjustable at all.
If the type tool is selected and the cursor not selecting any character the track/kern options are there and active. But if I select even one character the then all of the track/kern options are grayed out and no tracking or kerning options are selectable.
I thought it might be some Vista 64 problem, but in searching the internet I can't find anyone else with this problem and nothing in the KB.
I've tested TT, Type 1, and OT fonts. They all work the same. All of the tracking and kerning options in the character dialog box are grayed out if any (or all) characters are selected.
Is there a way of overriding line the "tracking" feature when dragging line endpoints to snap to something. Near points seem to want to track along the line axis but snapping 1st to a intersection or endpoint then allows tracking along the host axis or line. Its a bit hit and miss. Is then anyway of overriding so the endpost snaps semi freehand to a point on a line (i.e. nearest).
View 2 Replies View Relatedthe most annoying thing in smoke is doing backward offset-tracking. How to do it the right way ? it seems to be too complicated than it should be. In Nuke i ussually can track from any frame and can offset the reference to any pattern at any frame freely. I can't find something like that in Smoke. One solution is reverse the clip first, but that's not always the solution.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen the wind space warp is used, what series of mathematical equations or algorithms is 3ds Max invoking to generate motion based on an input force, turbulence value, etc.?
Are traditional fluid dynamics equations embedded into the calculation process? Is there any way to specifically see how the wind force (strength) and turbulence are interpreted to cause the modeled motion?
Is there any way to switch between wind force (strength) and wind velocity?
Lastly, if one were to have an object billowing in a breeze, is there any way to track the coordinates of a vertex at each point in time? The closest I've come is manually extracting the object's box dimensions at each interval - I would prefer to track how a fixed point on the object moves over time.
I can track an image ok, but how do I track text contained in a Gap Effect ? I can't see any tracking options in the Text manipulation screen.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a drafter that is using AutoCAD LT 2013. When they are drafting it acts like the Snap is on and Poplar tracking does not seem to be working. They do not have Snap on and they are using Polar tracking.
Have looked at all the setting that I can think of and compaired it to my AutoCAD 2009, full version. Our setting are identical. We both have Windows 7. I have mine set to look like XP, they have theirs with a custom looking display.
I love the feature of Object Snap Tracking but for some reason or another it has stopped working. I normally use F11 to turn it on or go through the drafting settings menu to turn it on. The Object Snap Tracking box is checked and should work, but it doesn't. Is there a magic variable that needs to be set?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am motion tracking a logo out of my clip by using simple motion tracking. The shot is a bit shakey but the tracker does a pretty good job, then afterwards to be certian I am going through frame by frame to ensure the entire logo is blurred out. (Its fairly big). And doing minor adjustments if need be.
After rendering the clip in my composition window and watching it, its plays through nicely, exacly how I want it.
The I hit (Command M) to "Make Movie" and render my clip out. I use "Best Settings" and render it out, the issue here is that when it is rendering, my blur becomes out of place and does NOT follow the logo like it should be. It jumps around, it dosent completely leave the logo, and jump all over the screen, but it makes the logo clealy visible. But it somewhat follows the logo across the screen in a horizintal matter, but does not stay in place like how the motion tracker/I set it to be.
This is weird to me because I have blurred out several things in the film using the same method already, and for some reason this one is just not working.
