I create a simple stage, add some grass with instancer node, and create some rocks with layout node,. as you can see, the first image was rendered at scene view, the second one was rendered by kick, rocks changed position and scale. I am working with houdini 19, arnold can't render cryptomatte with husk, so I render beauty with husk, and everything is fine, when I export the whole scene as a usd file, get my cryptomatte layer with kick, all the stuff created by layout node change the position.
by the way, object created by layout also can not set attribute with render geometry setting node, like matte or primary visibility
