I'm wondering if I'm missing something with the way I'm using motion masks with PTZ presets.

The scenario:
I have different motion masks for different profiles.

I use preset 1 is as the "home" position for each cam. The mask for this position will be different depending on the current profile. Therefore, under Properties -> PTZ/Control -> Edit presets... I don't use "Override mask and hotspot" for preset 1 because it would override the mask set under the active profile for the cam if I move the camera, and then select preset 1 to return home.

If I move the camera to a preset that has an override mask set, then move it back to preset 1 (home), the mask remains as per the last preset which had an override set, rather than returning to the mask set for the camera under the current profile.

"Override mask and hotspot" is independant of profiles.

Is there a way to have the current profile's mask apply to all presets which don't have an override set, rather than have it remain with the last mask override?

I hope that makes sense...

Thanks!

This has been resolved, many thanks Ken!

The mask will revert to the profile's mask (if one is set, even blank) if the PTZ preset has no mask override.
