Reading a clone's Global Position in python

Hello! Can anybody point me in the right direction for this one...

I know for a standard object in C4D it is possible to read an object's global position using .GetMg().off ,
but how to read a clone's global's position?

Mograph's marr.off returns a clone's position relative to the cloner object it's self if I'm not mistaken?

I'd like to know where a clone is in global/world space!

Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hi
You can multiply the Cloners Matrix with the clone's Matrix.
Had to read up on this myself actually
