+Track Motion
+============
+
+The Track Motion menu is used to perform tracking of selected tracks
+(i.e. following the selected feature from frame to frame).
+
+This operator depends on settings from the Tracking Settings panel.
+If during sequence tracking the algorithm fails to track some markers,
+they will be disabled and tracking will continue for the rest of the markers.
+If the algorithm fails when tracking frame-by-frame, the marker is not disabled,
+and the most likely position of the feature on the next frame is used.

 Clear Solution
-==============
+--------------
 
 Todo.
 
 
+.. _bpy.ops.clip.refine_markers:
+
+Refine
+======
+
+This operator will run a tracker from previous keyframe to current frame for all selected markers.
+Current markers positions are considering initial position guess
+which could be updated by a tracker for better match.
+
+Useful in cases when feature disappears from the frame and then appears again. Usage in this case is the following:
+
+- When feature point re-appeared on frame, manually place marker on it.
+- Use Refine Markers operation to allow tracker to find a better match.
+
+Depending on direction of tracking use either Forwards or Backwards refining.
+It's easy: if tracking happens forwards, use Refine Forwards, otherwise use Refine Backwards.
+
+
+Backwards
+---------
+
+.. admonition:: Reference
+   :class: refbox
+
+   :Mode:      Tracking
+   :Menu:      :menuselection:`Track --> Refine --> Backwards`
+
+Refine the track backwards.
+
+
+Forwards
+--------
+
+.. admonition:: Reference
+   :class: refbox
+
+   :Mode:      Tracking
+   :Menu:      :menuselection:`Track --> Refine --> Forwards`
+
+Refine the track forwards.
+
+
+.. _bpy.ops.clip.add_marker_move:
+
+Add Marker
+==========
+
+.. admonition:: Reference
+   :class: refbox
+
+   :Mode:      Tracking
+   :Menu:      :menuselection:`Track --> Add Marker`
+
+Places a new marker at the position of the mouse
+(which is under the button in this case, not ideal but it is just how things work)
+and then it can be moved to the needed location. When it is moved to the desired position,
+:kbd:`LMB` can be used to finish placing the new marker.
+Also, :kbd:`Return` and :kbd:`Spacebar` can be used to finish placing the marker.
+But it is faster to use :kbd:`Ctrl-LMB` to place markers directly on the footage.
+This shortcut will place the marker in the place you have clicked.
+One more feature here: until you have released the mouse button,
+you can adjust the marker position by moving the mouse and
+using the track preview widget to control how accurately the marker is placed.
+
+
+.. _bpy.ops.clip.detect_features:
+
+Detect Features
+===============
+
+.. admonition:: Reference
+   :class: refbox
+
+   :Mode:      Tracking
+   :Menu:      :menuselection:`Track --> Detect Features`
+
+Detects all possible features on the current frame and places markers at these features.
+This operator does not take other frames into account,
+so it might place markers on features which belong to moving objects.
+If the camera is turning away from this shot,
+no markers could be present within the frames after the camera moved away.
+
+There are several properties for this operator:
+
+Placement
+   Controls where to place markers.
+
+   Whole Frame
+      Places markers throughout the whole frame.
+   Inside Annotated Area
+      Places markers inside the area outlined with the :ref:`tool-annotate`.
+      This can be used to outline some areas with interesting features
+      and place markers only inside the outlined area.
+   Outside Annotated Area
+      Places markers outside the area outlined with the :ref:`tool-annotate`.
+      This can be used to outline areas of no interest (like trees, humans, etc.)
+      and place markers outside of these areas.
+Margin
+   Controls the distance from the image boundary for created markers.
+   If markers are placed too close to the image boundary,
+   they will fail to track really quickly and they should be deleted manually.
+   To reduce the amount of manual clean-up, this parameter can be used.
+Threshold
+   Limits minimal threshold for placing markers.
+   This value comes from the feature detection algorithm and it means:
+   low values means most probably this feature would fail to track very soon,
+   high value means it is not much such track.
+   Amount of markers to be added can be controlled with this value.
+Distance
+   Defines the minimal distance between placed markers.
+   It is needed to prevent markers from being placed too close to each other
+   (such placement can confuse the camera solver).
+
+
+.. _clip-tracking-plane:
+.. _bpy.ops.clip.create_plane_track:
+
+Create Plane Track
+==================
+
+.. admonition:: Reference
+   :class: refbox
+
+   :Mode:      Tracking
+   :Menu:      :menuselection:`Track --> Create Plane Track`
+
+The *Create Plane Track* operator creates a new plane track.
