Hi Bjoern,

The tofw wall does not move in real life it is at a fixed pos.
Neither does it in BRAG - try to make two topview plots - for mrs at 90 with
mmpos=0 and 90. So
whatever you have seen is NOT in the basic geometry setup. By the way TOFW
is not part of the volume
MINO for which the position is

How did you conclude it was mowing. Please clarify this?
