> Hello @EricRogerGarcia, I did some more digging: [Converting webgl 3d coordinates to 2d screen coordinates (p5.js) - Processing 2.x and 3.x Forum](https://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/17715/converting-webgl-3d-coordinates-to-2d-screen-coordinates-p5-js.html)[Add screenX, screenY and screenZ · Issue #1553 · processing/p5.js · GitHub](https://github.com/processing/p5.js/issues/1553) That is just scratching the surface! There may be something in there that can help with p5.js! slight_smile
