It is also possible to create a duplicate layer that removes all existing keyframes, but retains the current shape of the roto spline, intended to make it easier to break up tracks into sections. To streamline work on complex shots, a new Split Contours option splits the points selected into a separate layer, retaining all of their keyframes, making it possible to split large roto shapes into sets of smaller ones. It is also now possible to shrink or grow splines based on edge angle rather than direct scaling, which should mean that less manual adjustment is needed when expanding complex matte shapes. Users can adjust the radius and strength of the falloff gradient to control how many points are affected while dragging the spline around in the viewport. The rotoscoping toolset gets a new Falloff tool, shown at 00:30 in the video above, intended to make the process of making larger adjustments to roto splines more organic.

Roto: new options for adjusting, expanding and splitting roto splines The release features workflow improvements throughout the software’s rotoscoping, tracking and rendering toolsets, with many changes specifically intended to streamline workflow on complex shots. Boris FX has released Mocha Pro 2023, the latest version of its planar tracking software.
