Hi here is some questions I have, hope that anyone could help me with those. I will procede as asking questions alway's in that same post. Alway's read the last question of the post, this will be the last question I have. Here is the first one, I am working in DBP with coodrinates all the time like everyone. I can tell where is xyz. But precisely in the screen I don't really know. Is there a common used program (maybe in the code base, I checked but din't found one yet) that you can enter manualy or with the mouse and it will tell you the xyz coordinates. Or maybe I can create on. But I know the mouse position is different than the screen position used for DBP ex: if xyz is 0,0,0 the mouse have only x and y. For the mouse 0,0 it is top corver left. But coordinates for DBP 0,0,0 will be center screen. This is what I need to know.

Thanks

When it is too complicated it is because you are trying at the wrong door.

You can't directly relate the two things - it depends where your camera is and the angle it is pointing.

PICK SCREEN will let you easily translate from an X/Y screen position to a 3D position. Check the help files for full details.
