Hello all.

I am fixing a rig that was built by an old teacher of mine and I'm haveing trouble getting
the meshes to reference. These are the details.

1. I have deleted the old layers and placed the meshes into new layers.
2. I have set the layer mode to reference.

The problem is that the meshes from the original layers will not reference or template.
They remain selectable. This is rough news for animation because I don't want to tippy
toe around the mesh when I work. Can anyone find a solution to this problem in a hurry?


Thank you all

I've made some progress.

I've discovered that when I placed the objects into the layer, the shape nodes remained
behind. When I set the mesh layer to reference, the shape node is visible and selectable.

Any Ideas towards a fix?
