public function ScreenToWorldPoint(position: Vector3): Vector3;
public Vector3 ScreenToWorldPoint(Vector3 position);

Description

Transforms position from screen space into world space.

Screenspace is defined in pixels. The bottom-left of the screen is (0,0); the right-top is (pixelWidth,pixelHeight). The z position is in world units from the camera.

// Convert the 2D position of the mouse into a
// 3D position.  Display these on the game window.

	var e: Event = Event.current;
	var mousePos: Vector2 = new Vector2();
	// Note that the y position from Event is inverted.
	mousePos.x = e.mousePosition.x;
	mousePos.y = c.pixelHeight - e.mousePosition.y;
	p = c.ScreenToWorldPoint(new Vector3(mousePos.x, mousePos.y, c.nearClipPlane));
