yeah - this would be the hard way... I'll get deep into the docs tonight and
hope I'll find a function to make my day.
thanks - sebastian

yeah with a deformation by curve, instead its points are deformed.
clusters center won't follow, so perhaps,
-average point pos for each point in a cluster and map to world space
(scop works somewhere will look)
-or for an area, track a null at geos average vertice position
-or get bounding box center (script works too somewhere will look)
-or possibly constrain a null to same path with same animation on its
translation along path then track that global pos matching their
disimilar path percentage and translation parameters with a scop

How can I get the absolut position of an object which is deformed on a
curve? As everybody knows - the deformation is a matrix transformation
of the coordinate system. I suppose there is a (easy) way (without
rebuliding the matrix-transformation by hand) to get the absolut
position (x,y,z -values).
