I tried all the possible combinations of matrix multiplications but none of them seem to give the same result as the traditional way, can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?

Manual coordinates

I set out to do something I thought was simple but apprently I'm missing something. To make it simple, I want to draw a cube (using glutSolidCube ) centered in (x,y,z). I setup the projection matrix, then the modelview matrix and draw my cube, no problem.
Now, what I'm trying to do is (I know this looks weird, but it'd be too long to explain), I setup the projection matrix then store it in an array then do a LoadIdentity() on the projection, I then do the same for the modelview matrix. Then I do the following (in a nutshell):
inverse matrix
OR
OR
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); /*__reset__ projection matrix */ glPushMatrix(); glFrustum(...);glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); /*__reset__ modelview matrix */ glPushMatrix(); glLoadIdentity(); glTranslatef(x, y, z); /*translate*/ glutSolidCube(0.1f); /*draw*/glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION); /*reset states*/ glPopMatrix();glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW); glPopMatrix();

I know I can do it this way, but the point is I can''t, for some obscure reasons I won''t go into here.
The bottom line is, I want to know the absolute coordinates of my object once all transformations have been applied to it. So when I use a projection matrix P, and a modelview Matrix M on an object at position (0,5, 0,5, 0,5), what would the absolute position matrix be?
there is no "absolute" matrix. only an "absolute" vector...
vector transform_to_clipping_space(vector &vertex)
{
matrix modelview, projection;
glGetFloatv(GL_MODELVIEW_MATRIX, &modelview.mat[0]);
glGetFloatv(GL_PROJECTION_MATRIX, &projection.mat[0]);
vector clipCoord = (projection*modelview)*vertex;
return clipCoord;
}
using this:
...
if you now want to get the position on your screen, you have to divide the result of transform_to_clipping_space through its fourth (w-)coordinate. The result is in homogene form (ranging from -1 to +1)

Thanx a lot 666_1337, this does get the position right on the button. But as you say there''s no absolute matrix, you mean there''s no way I can get the object''s rotation matrix using the method I am?
"there is no absolute matrix" means, that a vertex is not stored into a matrix for drawing, but into a vector
so... i guess you know where the object should be on the screen, and you want to have the position in perspective space?
I don''t know how this exactly works but you could use the methods used for mousecursor-scene-interaction:

Watt & Polycarpo, Addison Wesley: 3D Games - Real Time Rendering and Software Technology
(1) transform the position into normalized field of view coordinates:
xv = 2xs / sx - 1
yv = 1 - 2ys/sy
zv = Cz
where
(xs, ys) is the position on the screen
(sx, sy) is the screen resoution
(2) Find the Direction D of the ray from C - the camera position - to the screen position:
D = (x, y, z)
where
x = xv*tan(alpha) / aspect_ratio
y = yv*tan(alpha)
z = Cz
alpha is half the field of view angle
(3) Use the ray with origin C and direction D to intersect with the scenequote:

I''m really sorry if this is getting lengthy but, as you might have noticed, matrices are not exactly my cup of tea.
The position vertex given by your previous post (using projection*modelview*position) is exactly what I need (after normalization). But now I have another problem, I need the rotation matrix that goes with it. What I mean is that when I apply the calculus you gave me, it does place the object at the correct position in absolute space, but it''s always got an orientation of (0,0,0) which is normal since I''m not rotating it yet. My question is, how can I get the 3x3 rotation matrix induced by the projection and modelview matrices? Is it sufficient to take the top-left 3x3 matrix in the result of the product between projection and modelview? What do I normalize it with?

clipping space matrix = Projection*Modelview
[ xx, xy, xz, xw ]Mclip = [ yx, yy, yz, yw ] [ zx, zy, zz, zw ] [ tx, ty, tz, 1 ]the orientation is given by the vectors x(xx, xy, xz), y(yx, yy, yz) and z(zx, zy, zz). once you have the matrices values as vector, you can normalize them as one.

when I do the projection*modelview product I get (for example) the following array[16]:
+0.962965 -0.298252 -0.747936 -0.740494 +0.000000 +1.448680 -0.261936 -0.259330 -1.150090 -0.249726 -0.626245 -0.620014 -0.016341 +0.015597 +1.035910 +4.010680
Questions:
1 - Should I divide everything by 4.010680 to normalize everything before I do my calculations?
2 - Are the first 4 values [xx, xy, xz, xw] or [xx, yx, zx, tx]?
3 - When you say to normailze the rotation vectors "as 1" do you mean divide the coordinates for the given axis (A) by the given w (Ax/Aw, Ay/Aw, Az/Aw) ? Or is it the same normalization for all using the global matrix w (which is 4.010680 in this case, and this brings us back to question 1).

why don''t you "bug" me in icq if its that important?
matrix clip;
...
vector clipX( clip[0], clip[1], clip[2] );
vector clipY( clip[4], clip[5], clip[6] );
vector clipZ( clip[8], clip[9], clip[10]);
vector Position( clip[12], clip[13], clip[14]);
clipX /= clip[3];
clipY /= clip[7];
clipZ /= clip[11];
Position /= clip[15];
the three clip vectors are the coordinate''s axes, projected on the screen. the Position vector holds the position of the locale in the screen (if it is on the screen).
another way to get the orientation is to multiply the clip matrix with (1, 0, 0), (0, 1, 0), (0, 0, 1) or any other vector representing an orientation
