In this example, the Track Points behavior is applied to a loose mask of seven control
points isolating a car in a clip.

Note: Keep in mind that paint strokes usually have a very large number of control points.
You should simplify a paint stroke by deleting or disabling control points prior to applying
a Track Points behavior to the stroke. To track the stroke as a whole, rather than by its
control points, use the Match Move behavior.
