Track Bone To Video

[Psynema]

So I put in tracking points into a video with a character and the option "track bone to video" is greyed out, no matter what I do or highlight.

There's no documentation or tutorials on how to track bones to a tracking point.

Is this a dead feature? And no I'm not talking about track layer to video, that's different, I mean actual bones.

Yeah, the manual does seem to be missing anything on this. Try this:

1. Don't put the video layer inside the bone layer
2. Select a bone
3. Track Bone to Video should now be available

Selecting the movie layer and track point should lay bone animation keyframes.

Video layer was separate the whole time. And no, that doesn't work.

Do you have tracking keyframes on the movie layer?

Then maybe you should post a link to the problem file, because it works fine here.

Ok got it to work - it was because the bone layer was in a folder...hopefully ASP fixes/changes that.
