Hi Benjamin, if you are using the spreadsheet view you can select the interesting points and only show those ones. Once you play with time, you will see the coordinates of those points updating.
If you were thinking of something else when you said tracking could you be more precise on what you had in mind ? Live text annotation / 3D lines...
