Hi dbDavideBoscolo,

Thanks for writing in.

Track Matte functionality is being refined as Selectable Track Matte. It is currently in beta. Here are more details: https://community.adobe.com/t5/after-effects-beta-discussions/feature-focus-selectable-track-matte-l...

You can give it a try and see if it does what you're asking for. Also, don't forget to share your feedback.

Thanks,

Nishu
