lets say I have a function called drawcube() that draws a cube about the origin. Then I translate, rotate, etc that cube. Something like: glPushMatrix(); glRotatef(32,0,1,0); glTranslatef(10,-20,1); drawcube() glPopMatrix(); Is there a way I can get the coordinates of the cube? Its easy to keep track of coordinates with translations, but I'm mostly confused on the getting the coordinates after rotations. Thanks

You will need to track it by yourself using matrix transformation ;)
good luck!
