    The following code is only returning the original position of the element, not the current position as arranged by the layout group:

    contentHolder.transform.GetChild(0).transform.position;

    What am I missing?

    Issue resolved. I was attempting to get the position of the element immediately following dynamically adding the element to the layout group. Used "WaitForEndOfFrame" to make sure the element was rendered before attempting to get the position of element.
