I was calling the method which used Get Coordinates via APPLY TO SELECTION Some how, inside the apply to selection GET COORDINATES would not return a value?!?!?!
Replacing the APPLY TO SELECTION with a For loop resolves the issue, and Get Coordinates returns values as expected. So... It might be wise, if you are using Get COordinates with APLY TO SELECTION in v14 + to verify that this works as expected (you do actually get coordinates).
