Calibration problems between 2.00 Beta and 2.3.1

Hello, I updated my Tracking Tools version from 2.00 Beta to 2.3.1 Final and once I did I was not able to calibrate using single-marker wand calibration. Once I click "Start Wanding" to calibrate in 2.3.1, the movement of the marker is not traced in green until I move the marker way outside the original focal point of the cameras (approximately 3 feet away from the original focal point). However, even when I adjust the camera angles and positions I can't find a focal point that the program likes and will allow me to begin calibrating. I know this is the newest version of Tracking Tools but has anyone had a similar problem and been able to fix it? Thanks for your help!

Hi Joel,

Have you selected the "1-Marker Calibration" engine specifically?

Hi Seth, thanks for getting back to me. I selected the 1-Marker Calibration but what I did not do was adjust the "Max Marker Size" of the marker under "Filter Type." This must be different between the 2 versions of Tracking Tools. In version 2.3.1 it is set to 150 so I increased it to 800 and it was able to calibrate my marker in the desired field. Thanks for help.
