Assistive 2D shape tracking

3min

This is an assistive feature that automatically adjusts the position and size, in sequence tasks, of the following shape types: Point, Curve, Polygon, MultiPolygon, and Bounding Box. The suggested workflow for using this feature is the following:

  1. Locate the object that needs to be annotated
  2. Draw the desired shape among the supported ones
  3. Enable assistive tracking in the left side menu (see image below)
  4. Step forward to the next frame. The shape will be adjusted automatically.Β 
  5. Check that the updated shape is correct, otherwise make the required adjustments.
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5, until the object being annotated is visible.

When using the assistive tracking feature, you are not allowed to skip multiple steps at once. You should move forward one step at the time as described in the workflow above. The feature will be automatically disabled when skipping multiple steps.
