How to move Billboard behind a table?

 

I know this must be somthing simple, but I can't seems to move it.

I was following the Aximmetry tutorial and now stuck at the part which it said to move the billboard behind the table, i need to lock to camera and change my Locked Distance. which did nothing for me. I also turned on the lightbuld, but my view just got dimmer, without seeing the checker pattern of the billboard.

Changing the Locked Distance from 0 to 500 or -500 does nothing.

I wanted to see things clearer, but in Free Camera mode is stuck at somewhere, I can't move it.

Hi,

Make sure that Use Billboards enabled in the Scene:

However, I don't think this is the issue. Something seems to be off with the tracking.
You only need to set the Tracking Device for the billboard if you have the tracking on the billboard (talent) and a separate one for the camera.
If it is so and you have a tracker attached to your billboard, then you also need to change the Auto Position from None to Tracking.


Controlling the camera's position from a preview window works if the first video output index is selected in the preview:

Warmest regards,
