    I want to be able to create object by clicking on the screen and I need coordinates in order to fire a message to my JS core to push a new object in an array + to instantiate that object on the screen.
    For this, I need space coordinates
    anyone? I tried to work with jit.gl.handle, picker but they are object related so .. I may miss something..

      hi! check out this thread: https://cycling74.com/forums/jit-gl-picker-for-jit-gl-multiple, i was doing something quite simmilar. here is raw and dirty version done using jit.gen, for modifying jit.gl.multiple object positions

      Not sure what you need, but here is one way to get glworld coordinates:

      I'm just a nerd who doesn't know how to communicate :-0 indeed, it isn't the thing I'm looking for :-/
      I guess the best way will be to create an external helper (I mean external to that patch) and to proceed with it

      ok it works, it is what I need. I didn't get the mouse x y z message from the info outlet of jit.window :)
