Frost offsets it's mesh in xreffed scenes by the icon's pos

Heya Folks,

Just a quicky one - thankfully it turns out it’s not a biggy. I’m working on some blood setups at the minute with the idea that I’d make one scene and then xref that into different camera scenes for different angles and frame numbers. I ran into a wee issue which was easily fixed but it’s a bit of a bug nonetheless. I saw that my frost mesh was offset from it’s source particles when I xfrefed it into my camera scene and since there’s no way to select an xreffed object I couldn’t force an update. I also noticed that the amount of offset in the particles was roughly the same as the distance of the frost icon from the origin, so if you move it back to 0,0,0 it’ll align correctly in your xref scene. I’ve attached a quick frost setup and a jpeg of what it looks like in my viewport.

Cheers!

John
