But your MatNullSpaceCreateRigidBody takes coordinates right? I was saying that I would see if the RBMs have been created with the PCSetCoordinated method that exists now. If the data is not set then I now just create the translational RBMs. I can now simply check the matrix and see if it has "null space" vectors attached and use those instead of creating the default null space. So this should be very easy to do.
