@jess-yan threejs has this ready-made somewhere(taking mouse point and returning meshes under it), I will most definitely post it on the forum here when I have this feature. This MAY require a shift away from how jscad works now, but hopefuly can be done with current jscad setup. The idea I have for now is to run a AST transform to inject line number information into the script and then run the modified script. This is something I am able to do, but I have other stuff in the pipeline before this

@z3dev hope you are well and refreshed, and ready to smash some PR's ... also a reminder that CadHub is waiting for your feedback to continue formally with jscad integration.

@jess-yan that is more likely a question people on threejs forums could answer. Usually this type of thing is solved by ray-casting in threejs, I know the term generally, and I have seen it mentioned a lot in threejs, so that should be the way to search a solution (could be that there is one already for threejs). Knowing the camera position, size of the canvas, FOV of the camera, it should be possible to calculate where the ray intersects with the xy plane. These are directions I would go looking. If you find a nice solution please share here we are always interested to learn new stuff like that.

@hrgdavor don't panic. i understand just fine. but i wanted to make sure that everything has been tried before making changes. also, i'm not certain why 'exact' mouse position is important. i'm just fine working with V2, and don't find the inertia to be troublesome. so, maybe this would be a user preference. no?
