Camera's target

Hi
Ho to find camera target? Maybe on the wheel
How can I find the mesh I’m zooming in?

Hey!

do you mean:

  • I want to know the mesh in the center of my screen?
  • Literally what is the camera target? (which is camera.target) ?

For the former you can use `scene.pick()’ API:

Hello @farukcelim just checking in, was your question answered?

strangely, it isn’t camera.target.
That’s always 0,0,0 - can you please tell me why?

the camera type is irrelevant.

this will only be filled after rendering one frame https://playground.babylonjs.com/#DWPQ9R#1855

You can also call camera.update() manually: https://playground.babylonjs.com/#DWPQ9R#1859

Thank you. That’s good to know, but not helping as I need it in realtime. Internally, the values _x, _y and _z and filled immediately btw.

Thanks!!
