Body: <p>I need to keyframe the Y position transform of a moving subject to keep her in the center of the frame and would like a set of crosshairs to help me do it.  I've seen solutions which employ Motion titles, but I can't get this to work because the clip I'm translating is inside a multicam clip. I've looked, but cannot find, plugins to add this functionality. Thanks</p>

Comments.Text: Not familiar with FCPX however in Vegas Pro there is a button to add a grid to the preview, do you see any such button near your preview screen? Yes, I know a grid is overkill, but at least you would get a crosshair out of it.

  It is indeed impossible to put a title over a clip inside a multi cam clip... Unless you turn that clip into a compound clip. Then you can add whatever overlay you want to it.
  
  So you will have:
  
  * keyframed clip with crosshair overlay
  * inside a compound clip
  * inside a multicam clip
  
  Just right click your the clip inside your multicam clip and choose New Compound Clip ( `⌥`  + `G` )
