Description

I'm trying to recover the absolute position of a neighbor with respect to a center cell (i.e. 1-6 index) and thought the cell_to_child_pos() function would be useful for this, following the definition in the docs. However, the function doesn't appear to exist in '4.0.0b1' or '4.0.0b2'. Looking for clarification on the state of this function or any other solutions to achieving this absolute position recovery.

Research direction

The issue points to the cell_to_child_pos() Python API entry point and the linked hierarchy documentation; start by comparing the documented function with versions 4.0.0b1 and 4.0.0b2. Done means clarifying the function's status or identifying a supported way to recover the neighbor's 1–6 position.
