Just add some axes in a geode->geoset at the origin below
each dcs.

This should mark the resulting translation and orientation
of the DCS in eye space.

If you want to be really fancy you could add geometry to
the parent which had a line from it's origin to each child
dcs by starting at 0,0,0 and transforming the end point
(also 0,0,0) through the matrix of the child dcs, this
would draw a 3D graph of the pfDCS connections.

Cheers,Angus.
