Object at Screen Position

[wandererfan]

Is there existing functionality that, given a screen position (x, y) in a 3D window will return the object + subObject at that location? Preferably the "top most" object.

This is effectively emulating a mouse click, I guess, without invoking the action associated with the mouse click.

Code: Select all

myObject, mySubObject = mainWindow.objectAt(x, y

Code: Select all

pos = Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.getCursorPos()
Gui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.getObjectInfo(pos)

returns something like :

Code: Select all

{'x': -0.8382894992, 'y': 0.164370581, 'z': 0.0, 'Document': 'Unnamed', 'Object': 'Extrude', 'Component': 'Face1'}

Perfect! Merci monsieur!

What if convert object position (x, y, z) into screen position (only x, y)?
