Object Mask Properties not adding keyframe when adjusted in Program Monitor

I have found that when I try to adjust tracking results of the object mask using the mouse to move the mask in the Program Monitor a keyframe is not added to any of the properties. Path or Transform. The numbers do change in the properties window without adding a ketframe.

If I manipulate the numbers in the properties panel a keyframe is added.

    Hi Crystal,

    Thanks for the post. When manually adjusting a mask from frame to frame, make sure the mask is set to Frame mode rather than Clip mode.

    Select the mask, then switch from Clip to Frame in the Program Monitor. Frame mode is intended for manual adjustments and should create the appropriate keyframes as you reposition or modify the mask on different frames.


    Please try that and let us know if you're still seeing the issue in Frame mode.


    Thanks,
    Kevin
