Sorry for replying to my own email but I’ve
been searching the web and there seem to be a lot of people with the same
problem as me. But I found an answer.
To get the position you need to call the get(Vector3f
) method on a Transform3D. You get the Transform3D from the TransformGroup.

Hello,
I’m writing a program for my Comp Sci Masters and
I’m trying to get the positions of objects within the scenegraph but have
no idea how to do it. I’ve read about using getLocalToVworld() but
it said the node was not compiled. Anyone got any ideas?

Cheers Lorenzo. I'd looked at that in the beginning but had very little
idea what was happening. Now I've played around with it a bit more,
you're right, getLocalToVworld is much easier.

No that is not correct. The transforms can be rotated and/or scaled, in
that case it will not work

Hi,
this will work, but it's not the simplest way.
If you call node.getLocalToVWorld you will get a m
