[Gate-users] How to use "Geant4 range penetration" in GATE ?

Dear Gate users, 

I'm still searching a way of recording the maximal range (and not the path!) of secondary particules created inside a very simple cube of water. 
I have been reading about the "range" Geant4 example (Geant4->examples->extended->medical->dna->range) in which 
- the total travelled distance, 
- the penetration (distance between the point where the incident particle is shot and the point where its tracking is stopped), 
- projected range (projection of the penetration range) 
are calculated. 
I think what I'm looking for is the so called penetration. 

Those capabilities offered by Geant4 are accessible via GATE ; I was not able to find how to use them throught GATE, could someone explain it to me ? 

Thank you for your help, 
Regards, 

Sarah Blind
