    Hi!
    I’m trying to make som text match move to a point in my clip.
    I’ve come as far as analyzing the video, but I can’t figure out how to apply a piece of text.
    Is this also done as a behaviour? I know I will have to use match move, but the text bit is stopping me.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Select your text and apply the Match Move behavior. A circle will appear on the screen. Drag it to where you want to track. Hit the Analyze button in the Behaviors tab and you should be good to go. Hope this helps.

    I want to do sort of the same thing, but when I apply Match Move to my text, there is no circle, no tracker. There’s not even an option in the Behaviors tab to analyze motion. Nothing really happens actually.

    What to do?

    Add the Match Move behavior to what you want to move (Track Two). Select the Match Move Behavior and then open up the HUD or the Behavior tab. You will have a Source Well. Drag what you want to track (Track one) into the well and then you will get a tracker circle. Hope this helps and best of luck.
