pick intersect point in object coordinates

Is there a way to get the intersect point when picking using

Code:

viz.pick(info=True)

in the local coordinates of the object being picked?

The command returns a point in global coordinates but you could convert this into local coordinates of the object that is picked:

Code:

import viz

import vizact

viz.go()



viz.addChild('piazza.osgb')

ball = viz.addChild('beachball.osgb',pos=[0,1.5,3])



def updatePick():

        info = viz.pick(info=True)

        if info.object == ball:

                print 'global',info.point

                helper = viz.addGroup(parent=ball)

                helper.setPosition(info.point, viz.ABS_GLOBAL)

                print 'local',helper.getPosition() #mode defaults to viz.ABS_PARENT

                

vizact.ontimer(1,updatePick)
