[mcstas-users] Absolute interaction position calculation

Hi,
Is there a straightforward way to calculate the absolute interaction position of a neutron within a component after you have used PROP_Z0?

I would like to know the interaction point in both local (component) coordinates and in the world system so I can then work out the interaction position relative to other components.
Having dug around in the documentation I couldn’t see anything obvious.

Thanks

Rob
