Changing the Main Frame
If you realize that you must change the main frame, that can be done by deleting the current main frame and allowing a new one to be chosen. That will be the previous keyed frame from the current main frame (considering the tracker's tracking direction). In general, you may need to remove all keys except the current main frame and the one you want to be the new main frame.
You can do that by shift-right-clicking the tracker rectangle on frames where the tracker key is to be removed. If there are many keyed frames, it may be easiest to control-shift- right-click the tracker rectangle to remove everything except the current main frame, then re-establish the key on the desired main-frame by double-clicking the tracker rectangle.
Either way, once there are only the old and new main key frames left, delete the old main frame key, and a new one will be determined, ie the one you want.
If you want to change the main frame without affecting other frames, you'll need to use a small Sizzle script. In general, changing the main frame at all should be very rare, if you are paying attention to start with.
