    Haven’t had to do this in years, I suspect I am doing something

    out of order.

    Two identical video tracks. I apply blur to V1.

    Draw mask on V2 around object I need blurred,

    using the Polygon tool.

    Open tracker and it tracks fine.

    But I have lost the shape I drew, so cannot select it

    for the tracker settings, it doesn’t ‘see’ a shape.

    Thoughts…?

    Hey chip Hess,

    One possible reason why the shape you drew on V2 is not visible to the tracker could be due to a layering issue.

    If V1 is on top of V2, it may be covering up the shape you drew. To fix this, try moving V2 above V1 in the layer order.
