I have a dilemma. I want to make button for menu selection. However, the menu needs to be 3 dimensional. I wonder if either, I need to make a function that relates the x,y position of the mouse on-screen to the x,y,z dimensions in the 3d world using the camera position, camera point direction and the x,y position of the mouse on-screen. If there is a function that does I must have passed it up.
I have already done something similar, but it required to actually test the screen position of the mouse compared to the 3d button endpoint by endpoint.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Use the pick object command and if it = your button objects number you are over it.
