Vray mesh lights - Object moves around when picked

[Alex_M]

Many times when I pick objects to use as mesh for my Vray mesh lights, the objects move around. How can I prevent this from happening? I have tried to match the pivot points of both objects prior to picking but it didn't help. I use a workaround where I leave a copy of the picked object and then I snap the mesh light at the position of the clone which I then delete.

What is the right procedure of picking, if there is one, so that the object doesn't move around?

Hi Alex,
Is your source mesh part of a group? I see this already logged as a bug.
Otherwise I will need some way to reproduce it here.

No, mesh is not part of the group. I will try to send a scene for test if I find some time (very busy at the moment )

Alright, we will wait for the files.
