Cannot create multiple texts to tracked scene with 3D tracker...only allows to create another text and camera ??

Im very familiar to AE and have been using 3D tracker awhile now and have had little problems.  Recently once I set the ground plane (after its been analyzed) and "create text and camera" that all works but as soon as I try to create another tracked text - select more points - R-click and "create text" it only allows "Create Text and Camera"  Worked perfectly a month ago in the same project...I tried other projects and the same issue... I exported as an older file thinking it was the new update and same thing. Created a new project from scratch, same thing...The weird part is it will randomly start work sometimes and then I close it out and then re-open and same issue...???

Any thoughts or insights would be much appreciated !

Im using the latest v 16.0.1

regards

Justin

    You may create a Null and then Shift+Parent a 3D Text Layer to the Null that was created with AE's Camera Tracker.
    On your intermittent issue, it will be good if you can provide a screen capture, to allow us to view the issue.
