LoadTrackables and AddTrackables Issue

I've created two seperate RigidBody files (.tra files) each containing a single Rigid Body exported from Motiv.
When I try to track both rigid bodies in my application by calling TT_LoadTrackables(RBFile1.tra) first, then calling TT_AddTrackables(RBFile2.tra) only the Rigid Body from the 2nd file I load seems to get tracked. (TT_GetTrackableCount() is 1)
If I switch the order in which I load the files, the last one I add/load is always the only one that is tracked.
Am I missing something?
I expected that both rigid bodies would be tracked and TT_GetTrackableCount() would return 2

Hi Jeff,
Could we see a sample of your code?

I'm hitting the tracking API through a managed wrapper, but here are the relevant pieces of code:
When screen loads I call:
Code: Select all
_algorithmCoordinator.LoadTrackablesFile(Trackables.RIGID_BODY_1);
_algorithmCoordinator.AddTrackablesFile(Trackables.RIGID_BODY_2);
This in-turn calls:
Code: Select all
public void LoadTrackablesFile(String trackableDefinition)
{
HandleReturnValues(NPTrackingTools.TT_LoadTrackables(trackableDefinition));
}
public void AddTrackablesFile(String trackableDefinition)
{
HandleReturnValues(NPTrackingTools.TT_AddTrackables(trackableDefinition));
}
The actual tracking tools methods are called via a DLLImport like so:
Code: Select all
[DllImport("NPTrackingToolsx64.dll")]
public static extern int TT_AddTrackables(String filename);
[DllImport("NPTrackingToolsx64.dll")]
public static extern int TT_LoadCalibration(String filename);
As mentioned in my previous post, calling LoadTrackables then AddTrackables will result in only the rigid body from the AddTrackables call to be tracked.
If I export multiple rigid bodies into a single file and call LoadTrackables with that file path, then I am able to track multiple rigid bodies but I'd prefer, in certain intances, to keep my rigid bodies in seperate files and load the trackable as I need it.
Thanks for the help.
