I am returning the local postion of a object in relation to its parent. How can I convert that to be in relation to the world?

Transform.localToWorldMatrix seems to be what im looking for but I dont know how to use it

TransformPoint doesn’t seem to work for me, Where is the document on using matrices to do the conversion?
