Hi,

I am trying to use the TGeoManager::FindNextBoundary() function to pass
tracks through my geometry to tell me how far I've traveled in a given
volume, by getting the step result from TGeoManager::GetStep().  After
passing through 1 or 2 volumes TGeoManager::GetStep() becomes 1e+30, when in
fact there are other volumes that should be intersected at a distance on the
order of 1.0.  Am I doing something wrong?

I am attaching the geometry file and the simple macro I used to step through
the geometry.

I using ROOT v3.03.09 on Red Hat 7.1.

Thanks
Kerry
