HI All.Anybody happened to use _view.unproject?

If I put a plane at (0,0,500);

And do :

protected function onMouse3DMove(event:MouseEvent3D):void
  {

  var vec1:Vector3D=_view.unproject(mouseX,mouseY);
 
  trace(vvec1);

  }

The unproject returns 3d coordinates like these:
Vector3D(-1.5011106729507446, 0.2309400886297226, 20.000001907348633)

Anyone has an idea what is going on here?

Dont’ know if its broken or if its supposed to do this but.

It returns the world position of a click on the near plane (frustum).

That is strange.if I set the plane at zero and move the camera backwards then unprojected z value appears correct.  X and Y look like they come from the near plane. In away 3 it actually worked fine.

Take a look at Drag3D class where unproject is being used.

Indeed a good idea Fabrice. Btw,when do we see Prefab 2.0?

You are not the only one missing this baby Every moment I have goes to it.  It’s simply a lot of work… I do all I can to release a very light version that will allow imports/exports. Which is basically the most wanted feature for away3d 4.0 projects…
