Brian,

After reading yours, I thought THAT is going to be the fix. =A0It didn'= t
work but I think I know the problem. =A0It was an easy enough shot that
I manually tracked with just a mask so there are no corner pins.

So, to recap, I took my layer, which is just a solid. =A0This one does
NOT have the shine and that probably doesn't matter anyway.

So, I removed my mask keyframes, along with effects applied, then
applied the effects first, then the corner pins back. =A0It remains the
same.

Now, I am not even sure I can make it work at all with this setup.

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Hello,

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 I've added a fractal noise to a solid, with Tra= pcode
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Shine then added (not that this is important), and = when
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 I animate the solid to move around to the scene, th= e
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 fractal noise remains in place which sort of ruins = the
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 effect.

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Basically, I have a screen replacement for a laptop= with
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 camera movement. The solid the replaces the screen = and
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 is tracked for the movement.

=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Any idea how to get this fractal noise to stick to = the
=A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 solid for the same movement? =A0Here is a still.
