    Hello Jesus,<br>
    <br>
    I think what you report is related to the fact that the setting of
    component parameters, including the time copied into Monitor_nD
    'uers1', takes place before the propagation to the actual component
    geometry. Indeed the propagation is implemented within the TRACE
    section, which requires all component parameters to be set
    previously. Then the time you record is the one from the previous
    component.<br>
    <br>
    The solution to what you wish to compute is to position a Monitor
    just before the actual Monitor_nD using user1=t.<br>
    <br>
    Emmanuel.<br>
