   *Once you have recorded the movement data right click it in the hierarchy tree on the left hand side of the gui within "take" and click trajectorize. This will create trajectories of the movement allowing you to see the change in x,y,z positions of each marker.    *Once you have recorded the movement data right click it in the hierarchy tree on the left hand side of the gui within "take" and click trajectorize.
