When you run Image tracer; it will take whatever layers you have selected and combine them together into one image (regardless of if they’re already a vector or not) — then it will attempt to trace it into a new vector layer.
You can view the image it is tracing, by changing the dropdown in the options popup from ‘Original image’ to ‘Processed image’.
