Match By Name
Another approach is to give each tracker a meaningful name. In this case, clicking the Target Point button will be helpful: it brings up a list of trackers to choose from.
A more subtle approach is to have matching names, then use the Track/Cross Link By Name menu item. Having truly identical names makes things confusing, so the cross link command ignores the first character of each name. You can then name the trackers lWindowBL and rWindowBL and have them automatically linked. After setting up a number of matching trackers, select the trackers on the video clip, and select the Cross Link By Name menu item. Links will be created from the selected trackers to the matching trackers on the reference shot.
Note! Cross Link By Name will not link to a camera/object that has its solve mode set to Disabled, to allow you to control possible link targets if needed. You must temporarily change the solve mode to link to a disabled object.
Details on links: a shot with links should have links to only a single other shot, which should not have any links to other shots. You can have several shots link to a single reference.
