Stabilizing and Tracking >

# Importing and Exporting Data

Import and export tracking and shift data values to an ASCII file using the Import and Export buttons located in the Track and Shift areas of the Stabilizer menu.

The tracking data specifies the X and Y position of the tracker box in relation to the origin point of the image; these are absolute coordinate values. The origin point has coordinates (0,0), and is located at the lower-left corner of the image.

The shift data specifies the difference between the position of the reference box (0,0) and the position of the tracker box in the current frame. These are relative coordinate values.

Both the Tracking values and the Shift values are formatted as follows:

frame#: X position, Y position

NoteIf the position of the reference box is changed during the analysis, the offset is compensated for and the exported tracking data still shows a continuous tracker path.
