    Hi

    I made some visual effect here and I'm trying to set up my gameObject hierarchy to make a nice prefab.

    Somehow, when I assign a new parent to the gameObject holding the visual effect, the parent transform got changed.



    You can see that there is a weird offset on y axis for my visual effect, and when i try to parenting a empty transform (to catch up the offset) it juste replicate the offset along the hierarchy.

    So I end up having a super weird prefab with an ugly offset between the transform and the object

    Here is the vfx graph :



    Has anyone got a trick to solve this issue ?

    Thanks,
    Thibault

    I just found a small fix : I'm manually offseting the visual effect in the graph to catch up the error



    However I would prefer to have a "clean" solution rather than this trick
