How to get the insertion point of a component?

how to get the insertion point of a component in the active model? That means the position of the component.

ss = Sketchup.active_model.selection
for e in ss
   if (e.kind_of?(Sketchup;;ComponentInstance) ) 
	point = e.definition.insertion_point
	puts point
   end
end

it shoud bevery simple but I don't get it: I get 0,0,0 with this code but the component is not on 0,0,0...
What's could be wrong?
Thanks !!!!!

Of course the insertion point of a component definition is always 0,0,0 !
You have to use this instead:

ss = Sketchup.active_model.selection
for e in ss
   if (e.kind_of?(Sketchup;;ComponentInstance) )
   point = e.transformation.origin
   puts point
   end
end

Hope this helps,

Yes, I remember now figuring this out when I wrote the 3D Text Tool.
