Playground 'Drag & Drop' problem

[babbleon]

Hello,

Here's the Playground 'Drag & Drop': https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#17EGSU#10

If you drag, say, the green cube backwards to the edge of the ground... then try and click and drag to get it back, you have to click on the part of the cube above where the extents of the ground is.

How do we get around this, so that regardless of the point above the ground and so long as you're clicking on one of the meshes, it drags correctly?

Cheers,

The ground is needed as a reference point for the move. See line 91 in the PG which calls the function getGroundPosition lines 71 to 80. You can always make the ground larger and invisible

In my project I created fake ground. When your clicked on mesh (get Y position off clicked point), move fake ground to position (Y). Pick point read from fake ground.

Not best work around, but works for me.

Thank you @JohnK - the ground is always going to have a horizon though. Where in Bucks are you? I spent my student years in Wycombe, what little I can remember of it!

& thank you @Arte too - I will have a go with your suggestion.
