Get x,y,z from client

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would get the coordinates x, y, z from the client at runtime. I have not been 
able to find any method. 

I'm looking for a method to get the same result that I have obtained with 
zoomFactor. 

txtZoomfactor.value = viewer.zoomFactor 

thanks

thanks

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.6.5 
Windows 

Please provide any additional information below.

Do you mean vertex coordinates of a mesh or the coordinates from picked 
positions?

I mean the coordinates from picked positions. 

on the other hand I would appreciate also if you could explain how to get the 
vertex coordinates.

thanks

There's not an existing method to get coordinates from a picked position 
directly. While this can be done by:

1. Use viewer.pick() 
method(http://jsc3d.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/jsc3d/docs/symbols/JSC3D.Viewer.htm
l#pick) to fetch the transformed coords on a given position (pickInfo.canvasX, 
pickInfo.canvasY, pickInfo.depth);

2. The transformation matrix is stored in viewer.transformMatrix as a 3x4 
matrix. You can manually solve its inverse matrix, by which to calculate the 
coords of that picked position in model space.

Getting vertex coordinates is quite straightforward. A mesh's vertex coords are 
stored in its vertexBuffer property in a flattened sequece as x0, y0, z0, x1, 
y1, z1, .... Just Access mesh.vertexBuffer to get them.

I'll try it,

thanks for your support.

is there no simpler way to get the x and y coordinates during runtime? 
 i would like to execute a function at some given positions during the animation.
