What coodinates are you trying to find? The coodinates in the world-space or the coodinates on screen?

If it's the coodinates in the world-space, then I don't think there's a way without delving into the wonderful world of trigonometry!

If it's the coodinates on screen, then I have no idea because I've never used that function before...
